Answers:
there are many things you could do!.

Lasagna with garlic bread and a salad

cornish game hens with long grain and wild rice, and broccoli

chicken parmesan with linguini noodles, tossed salad, and a green vegetable!.

the hardest thing is the lasagna!. the simplest thing is the hens!. bake them in a 350 ove for about an hour!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

Have you ever made "real" fettuccine alfredo!? Use heavy cream, fresh grated parmesan, fresh basil and parsley!. You can add fresh mushrooms, red bell pepper - other veggies or saute some pieces of boneless chicken to add at the last min!. It's quite a presentation especially served with a great salad with homemade Italian dressing!. Very pretty plate!. Don't forget to shave some parmesan over the top when you serve it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The first meal I made for my husband was easy but he was impressed! I knew that he was a meat and potatoes kind of guy, he likes his food simple but tasty!. I made a chuck roast, mashed potatoes, broccoli-cheese casserole, cooked baby carrots tossed with butter and brown sugar and dinner rolls!. I cook a roast in beef broth with onions and garlic tightly wrapped with foil for 4 hours at 350 degrees!. It's so tender it falls apart!. Your partner may be a vegetarian or have a more sophisticated palate though!. Good luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com
