What are some romantic dishes to cook........?!
Answers: for a spouse that has been away in Korea for a year now?
Baked Rock Cornish Hen served with Dressing, Gravy and some buttered corn. Your spouse is probably a little tired of rice.....and I am saying that because I ate rice constantly while stationed in the Western Pacific.....not being cute or funny. Some baked or mashed potatoes might be a fresh change. Hug your spouse and tell them thanks for serving.
spicy curry!

4. In a rush? Smithfield, Hormel, Armour have packages of PRE-COOKED beef tips, roast, pot roast, pork roast, chicken, ham, meatload. Use this for your meat dish with a side dish or two of vegetables, rice, or potatoes. You will find these packages near the meat section, they are not frozen.
5. Tyson's fully cooked whole chickens are delicious. I serve them often with S&W canned sweet potatoes, Stove-Top dressing, microwave chicken/turkey gravy in jars, a canned vegetable, canned cranberry sauce, and frozen Pillsbury Microwave Biscuits which are better than I can make. A frozen pie defrosted and fully cooked. Perfect for one or two people at Thanksgiving or Christmas.
6. Another thing you can do is cook in a slow cooker or a crock-pot. You put the meat meal into the crock-pot in the morning and it cooks all day long. The meal is ready at dinner time. Crock-pots can be bought at your grocery store, WalMart, Target, etc. BE SURE to read the booklet that comes with the crock-pot.
Here are some crock-pot recipes for you:

7. If you are in a hurry, go to your grocery store and pick up a roasted chicken that you can buy in the deli section. They also have side dishes such as veggies, salads, desserts, and etc.
8. Frozen dinners are always a good choice. Our favorites are Stouffer's, Marie Calendar's, Michael Angelo's, Boston Market's. Just add a side dish, salad, or fruit salad. Desserts can be bought at their bakery section.
9. Ragu Sauces- Italian (in jars, just pour it on).

The best dishes to serve are simple, uncomplicated and easy to eat...for example, finger foods (you can feed him and he can feed you). Make a whole arrangement of appetizers and let that be dinner. You can make these ahead of time and that way you are not being overwhelmed by fixing dinner...and ignoring your spouse.
Keep it simple...food shouldn't be the priority. Your spouse should be!

Have a wonderful time re-connecting with your husband
Good day,
So spouse has been away for a 1 year. Whats is his favorite meal?...bet he miss home-cooking...Save the romantic dinner for after he settles down.. You've got alot of catching up to do.. No pressure, let him ease back in...happy homecoming
WOW!!!!! well a nice pasta and meatball...or steak. Honey, he will be more interested int eh cook and not the meal!!! thank him fgor his service!
Well I Know for a fact, that some of my friends do not like basic Cole slaw. So try this; with beef, chicken or fish use a pre-packaged coleslaw mix, dice some red onion and use any bottled bleu-cheese dressing. It is wonderful!
If you've been eating Korean food for a year, nothing is more romantic than beer and barbecue. I don't even like beer and I would want beer after a year in Korea. Or a short sword.
Here's my blog's recipe for ribs. http://thatsnottopical.squarespace.com/b...
