Answers:
Spaghetti & meatballs isn't that hard, just find a recipe online!

Ramen noodles.

well, there's always the classic spaghetti and meatballs...
or any pasta dish for that matter, just cook the noodles, and cook the sauce, put them together, and there you go!

pasta with shrimp and garlic bread

always looks nice =)

Lobster tail-be sure to have butter.

Main dish= shake and bake chiken. it gives you the flavor and everything and you just buy the chicken and it tells you how to cook it. Side= salad, just buy lettuce and whatever you like in it. Side 2= baked or mashed potatoes. dessert= cake from a box, you can't mess it up if you read the box. good luck!

something romantic like stuffed crab with a salad and two candles and excipenive champagne

Chicken Parmg
Spaghetti

bake a ham w/mustard/brown sugar glaze, mac&cheese (velveta shells brand) and a salad. it is very easy, but looks great!!!! serve with iced tea :)

Macaroni & Cheese

You just boil Ravioli out of a frozen bag for a few minutes, and sauce, and heat (simmer for awhile)...then get some cheesy bread going, and don't burn it!

It really depends on what she likes, although whatever you choose make sure to compliment it with a single white, yellow, and red rose - - also do this by candle light!

Hamburger Helper :D

Or Chicken Helper....if you buy ones that look homemade, the rice ones in particular, she might love it.

Also....if I was your girlfriend and I knew you couldn't cook, I would love it if you made me anything, so long as you tried. Heck you could make me a grilled cheese and I would appreciate it, even if it was burnt.

So, don't worry about how great it is, just that you tried. :D

Macaroni and Cheese. Pretty simple and easy. Always a hit when prepared correctly. Or a few cans of Chef Boy Ardee in a small pot with a little extra sauce or seasonings. Also easy to prepare and disguise.

begin with a classic, spagetti, if you can brown burger, open tomato sauce and boil noodles, its a cake walk.

then make dessert, buy an angel food cake, cut it open, do it at an angle then slice the extra off. you want a hollow space in the cake, then fill that with fresh sliced strawberries and whipped cream, put the lid on, frost with more whipped cream and refridgerate. she will think it took hours

back to spagetti, add salt, pepper, garlic, and ittalion seasoning to taste after you brown the hamburger, and add tomatoe sauce. put over drained noodles.

I love this recipe, it's so good, and easy. It's Shrimp Alexander and my husband and I devour it each time.

In a small saucepan, melt 4 oz. of butter. The butter should be warm, not hot. Dip cleaned shrimp in warm butter one at a time. Let excess butter drain off, then pad buttered shrimp into prepared breadcrumbs (see recipe below).


Place breaded shrimp on baking sheet vein side down with the tail curled up. Place sheet in a 500-degree oven for approximately 4-5 minutes, until golden brown.


Serve with white wine butter sauce or any other light cream sauce.

2 c. plain breadcrumbs
2 tsp. finely minced shallots
2 tsp. chopped parsley
1 tbs. chopped fresh garlic
Salt and pepper

Mince shallots, chop garlic and parsley. In a mixing bowl, combine garlic, shallots, and parsley into plain breadcrumbs, being careful not to leave any lumps of garlic or shallots. Add salt and pepper to taste.

3 shallots Finely Minced
1 tbspn olive oil
1/2 cup white wine
4 tbspns butter
Juice from 1/2 lemon

Heat oil in pan add minced shallots till softened. Add white wine and cook down to about 1/4 cup on med high heat. Add butter to melt. Remove from heat and strain liquid to remove shallot. Add lemon juice and parsley if you choose.

Serve over shrimp.

Make with Jasmine rice.

Viola, easy dinner that tastes like it took a long time and hard work.

**************

Just so you know all that mincing means is cut very small. They sell garlic already minced in a glass jar. You can usually find it in the fresh veggie section.

get some bacon, cut it up into little bits, and fry it on a medium heat until it is almost cooked. add a clove of crushed garlic, and some oregano and some black pepper and salt. fry that for another minute or so.
then add a tin of chopped tomatoes, a squirt of tomato sauce and mustard. and add some water to make up the sauce. simmer for 20 mins.

while that is simmering put some pasta on the boil.

a few minutes before its done add a tablespoon of mayonaise to the sauce and stir and let it simmer for few more minutes.

then serve :) is delicious

stouffers chicken parmesan. throw it in the oven for 1 hour and its ready throw away the box though.

Steak, mashed potatoes, and any veggies you prefer. With garlic rolls and don't forget desert. Cream pies are quick and easy. Just buy pie crust and make instant pudding. But it depends what kind of pie you are making.

I'll go the regular route with Spaghetti and a side salad. Since it doesn't really take that long to make, wait until she gets there, let her see you making it. It will make all of the difference in the world. Heck if she's good, she'll even get up and help if you get stuck.

What sort of foods does she like?? That would make it easier for me to tell you what you can make. I guess you can't go past pasta it's quick and easy and depending on what youput in it it can also look as though you put a bit of effort into it.

Here is my receipe for a pasta dish.

you need 2 cans of tomatos (italian) chop them up if they are whole, then add some salt to it,

2 handfulls of capers they come in a jar,drain them and wash under cold water

black olives with seed, (buy them fresh from the deli) You can buy the samll stub( or add as many as you like)

chillie (either fresh or dried you only need a small amount if you don't like heat leave it out)

3 large cloves of garlic (chopped small).

1 bunch of fresh basil.

1tsp of olive oil

Method.

fry your garlic, chillie, capers and olives in a hot pan, till fragrant, then add your tomatos, let it simmer till a bit of the excess juice is evaporated them take of the heat and add your basil, stir well then serve with pasta of your choise, you can make a nice salad to go with it. hope you like it.

Since you said that you can't cook, I'm assuming that you don't have any knife skills. Chopping and mincing can be really tedious when you don't know how to use a knife so I'd skip recipes that call for a lot of that. Just make shrimp scampi. Use deveined shrimp. Buy some really good parmigano reggiano. All you have to do is saute the shrimp in butter (add some paprika if you want a good color). Cook some angel hair pasta and voila. Buy some fresh parsley for garnish if you want to be really fancy. Look up a recipe for the measurements.

Get to grillin; how is this for you....
Invite her over for a lil picnic and make it very casual so your food won't be a stress...

Appetizer - Get the entertainment crackers and put the cut already cut shapes of cheese and add a few grapes or sliced strawberries let her enjoy with either champagne(not if you aren't 21or older) or a sparkling water while you get the grill warmed up and you visit with her showing your manly cooking talents

Salad - get one of those bagged salads with mixed greens and add some pretty mini tomatoes, a nice cheese if you like and a dressing you know she likes mix it all up and serve on a chilled plate...eat this with her while you all are waiting the 8 mins for your salmon to grill - so put the salmon on right after you put the plates down and she enjoys the first bite. You sit with her enjoying you salad then.

Make sure her glass of beverage is filled

You look like you slaved, had fun, showed how manly you are all why romancing her. EASY as 123

minute rice, frozen meatballs and stir-fry...its great and takes about 30 mins to make

Make some chicken fettuccine alfredo. It's like my favorite thing in the world and quite simple to make.

1. Get some frozen (or fresh) chicken breasts and cook them like the package says.

2. Get some fettuccine noodles, they are buy the spaghetti in the same kind of box. Boil the water and cook them until tender.

3. Get some alfredo sauce (it's white) it's also by the spaghetti sauce and heat it up.

4. If you like broccoli get some frozen broccoli and steam it.

Finally when it all gets done cooking mix it together and serve.

If you want to get fancy with it sprinkle some fresh herbs on top to make it look nice.

You can serve it with fresh hot bread sticks (I would go for plain bread with no garlic or cheese) and a salad, but make sure you have the kind of dressing she likes.

It's a meal anyone would love and is a little different than plain ol' spaghetti, and wont stain as bad if she (or you) is a messy eater...

Steak is real good if your girlfriend likes meat with a few sides she likes.

Steak , baked potato, and a salad. Nice bottle of wine.
