You could grill steak (cook it slow and do not overcook it)!. I would suggest an expensive cut so that you can WOW your girlfriend!. Make baked potatoes with it-simply wash the potatoes, poke it with a fork, roll it in salt, wrap it in aluminum foil and bake at 350 for an hour or more!. Serve with a green salad and fresh bread!.!.!.she should be impressed!. And remember most girls love chocolate so pick up a nice dessert from your local bakery!.
If she isn't into meat here is a simple recipe for Baked Ziti:
1lb ziti noodles, cooked and drained
1 medium tub of cottage cheese
2 boxes of cream cheese
