Answer 3

Spaghetti, salad and bread .... Brown ground beef and add to a jar of classico spaghetti sauce. This can be done the day before and reheated. Pour a package of store bought salad mix into a festive bowl. Mix 3 parts olive oil and 1 part vinegar and drizzle over the salad. Toss gently. Add tomatoes/cucumbers or whatever to the salad if you feel the need, but it isn't necessary. Put a damp paper towel over the salad, then cover with plastic wrap and it will keep in the 'frig for 30 minutes or so. Put the dressing on when you are ready to serve the salad. Wrap your favorite bread in reynolds wrap and heat in a 300 degree oven for 15-20 minutes. Wrap the warm bread in a pretty towel to serve. Have salt, pepper, red peppers, Parmesan cheese, butter available. This works great as either buffet style or sit down. Candles or low flower arrangement on the table and you are good to go. Enjoy!

Answer 4

Do something casual yet a tad dressed up at the same time...

Mushroom Swiss Burgers with Balsamic Mayo

1 to 1 1/2 lbs of ground beef
Worcestershire sauce to taste
dried or fresh thyme to taste
salt and pepper to tast
1/4 cup water

Mix all ingredients and form into patties. 350 degrees...you know how to cook burgers. lol

1 pkg any style mushrooms you like sliced
olive oil
fresh or dried thyme to taste
salt and pepper to taste

Brown the shrooms on medium high till tender.

When the burgers are just about done top with mushrooms and Swiss cheese. Run 'em back in the oven till the cheese melts.

Mix mayo with balsamic....start at about 3/4 cup mayo to a tbs. or two of balsamic vinegar. A LOT of fresh ground black pepper. The mayo will be strong from the vinegar...dont be alarmed. It will be delicious on the burgers. Go for about a pale purple color in the mayo. Serve on good rolls from the bakery section...go for fresh veggies if you like, I just go as is. Serve with home made fries and do root beer floats for desert. Yum.
