What to cook for sunday dinner?!
Answers: I need a recipe thats quick, easy and taste good. Note I don't usually cook and I have a special friend comming over tommorrow (11/11/07)
You can't go wrong with steaks, baked potatoes, and a nice salad!
There's always pasta, red sauce (I love the three cheese sauces), and salad.
1/2 ham, cubed, and 2-3 packages of au-gratin or scalloped potatoes, thrown into the crock pot all day, with corn bread.
I love hamburger helper. Its easy and there are lots of flavors to choose from.
A roast with mixed veggies.

Try creme brulee. It's easy, fast enough and delicious. And for the main course try some pasta (ravioli, anything).
i have a great recipe for sweet & sour meatloaf with really cheesy mashed potatoes. I found it online and it's a real man pleaser :-)
Make some chicken breasts on the George Foreman, or just in the oven. Serve with some AuGratin Potatoes, a veggie and throw in a salad if ya want. For dessert you could just make some brownies, or a cake. Or buy a nice apple pie and just heat it in the oven. Voila, a nice meal!

Sunday Pot Roast... your kitchen will smell heavenly !
Buy a 1 1/2 or 2 lb shoulder roast
Place your roast in a deep casserole dish.
Sprinkle with Worcestershire Sauce
Layer some cut onion over the roast.
Then sprinkle with a package of dry Lipton onion soup
Then cut up two potatoes and four carrots. Place these around your roast. Season with pepper and garlic powder... no salt ! The soup has enough salt .
Cover and cook at 325 for 2 hours. One tender roast. It will make it's own gravy as it cooks , from the onion soup , Worcestershire, and moisture from the vegetables.
Don't forget to buy some rolls.
