Answer 2

Go to a park and have a picnic, then you don't have to hang out in the kitchen. You can grill burgers and brats, have potato salad, chips and cookies.

If you are having a few different meals, you might want to do a nice sit down meal one night. A great casserole to make is my Chicken and Stuffing Casserole.

Cube 2 lbs of Chicken and cook throuroughly on the stove

In a 8x12 cakepan, (or large casserole dish) combine the following:
2 cans cream of chicken soup
2 cans of peas
1 cup of milk
Mix in the chicken when it is done cooking

In a large bowl mix the following together:
2 boxes Stove Top Stuffing
2 1/3 cups water
1/2 stick melted butter

Pour the stuffing mix on top of the chicken mixture

Bake at 350 for one hour

Let sit 5-10 minutes before serving so the juices thicken a little bit.

Serve with warm crescent rolls and a jello salad

Answer 3

Try my chicken tagliatelli.
We've just had guests for dinner and it's what I cooked.

Take a couple of chicken breasts and cut them into strips or cubes.

Throw them into a pan (I like to use a wok for this) and seal them by lightly frying them in a little olive oil.

Once the meat is sealed, add a little ground corriander, ground cumin, and chinese 5-spice.
Then stir in some lemon juice, and a dash of balsamic vinegar.

Allow this to reduce down a bit, and while it's doing this, put a pot of tagialteli pasta on to cook.

Once the sauce on the chicken has reduced a bit, stir in some double cream and then strain and tranfer the cooked pasta from the pot into the wok with the chicken and sauce.

Mix it all together until all the pasta and meat is covered.

Now serve it with a nice cold bottle of white wine.

Answer 6

I would cook sausage, creamy mash and onion sauce, plus the veg of your choice (Ilike mange tout with this) followed by gooey chocolate puddings and vanilla ice cream.

For 4
2-3 good quality sausages each
1 kg potatoes
1 small carton double cream (125ml size)
100ml milk
1 onion
125g butter (75g for spuds, rest for sauce)
salt and pepper to season
Veg of your choice

Buy some good quality sausages, Toulouse or something from your supermarket's premium range, or even better go to the butcher's or deli. Cook them according to the pack instructions or slowly for 25 mins turning occcasionally.

For the potatoes 1kg of peeled potatoes is plenty for 4 adults, so adjust quantity to suit the number coming. Bring to the boil in unsalted water and simmer for 20-25 minutes. Mash well with a good pinch of sea salt using a potato masher. Add about 75g of butter and continue to mash. Meanwhile heat about 150ml milk for 1 minute in the microwave. Mix this into the potatoes and butter. To make your potatoes extra fluffy, use an electric whisk to whip them up.

If it helps this can all be done in advance, then reheated in the microwave when you're ready to eat. If you do this transfer to a microwavable container andf cover with cling film after mashing.

For the sauce chop and onion. Melt about 50g butter in a saucepan. Add onions and cook on LOW heat, stirring occasionally for 20-25 mins. Don't let them brown. Add a small carton of double cream, bring to boil and heat until thickened (about two mins should do it). DO NOT DO THIS IN ADVANCE OR IT GOES HORRIBLE AND GREASY! Season to taste.

For the pud, which tastes fab and looks really hard to make but is actually really easy.

100g of 80% cocoa chocolate
100g butter
1 egg
100g caster sugar
25g plain flour
4 ramekins
Good quality vanilla ice cream

Everything can be assembled in advance and put in the oven preheated to 180 degrees (160 degrees fan). But don't cook them until you are ready to eat them.

Melt the chocolate and butter in a bowl over a pan of simmering water. Meanwhile whisk sugar, egg and flour. Whisk in meted chocolate and then transfer into ramekins. Place on baking tray and cook for 10-12 minutes until risen and tops just starting to crack. Do not overdo, you are after a crunchy top and gooey middle. Serve with a scoop of ice cream. the hot chocolate and cold ice cream complement each other beautifully.
