H and I are cooking together for the FIRST time in the new kitchen and neither of us can come up with anything that is like OMG YES LET'S HAVE THAT! We've thought about stuffed chicken breasts and steak. But, we're kind of meh on it.
Anyone have any ideas?

Re: Favorite homecooked meal
Our first valentine's day in our old house my H was working late and I decided to get some lobster tails and steam them, sautee scallops and shrimp and put them in an olive oil linguini. That was probably my best meal I made at home.

Or just some kind of pasta and a salad, it's easy for two people to cook together
We have a bbq brisket in the slow cooker today, so that's not really cooking.
My MIL's lasagna
Baked spaghetti
steak on the bbq with baked potatoes, garlic bread and caesar salad
roast beef (cooked way too long in lots of water so it falls apart) with mashed potatoes, corn, and coleslaw.
Pasta is good too. Not spaghetti though. Spag is a saturday or sunday thing.. I let it simmer on the stove for minimum 4 hours.

Lasagne.
Everything the light touches is my kingdom.
Macaroni & cheese, made by my grandmother. That's the best.
Any number of things my mom makes with fresh veggies - fried banana peppers or cornbread salad are top of the list, though.
For what I cook, hashbrown casserole and honey mustard chicken.
In my H's opinion, my Grilled Chicken Caesar Sandwiches (pizza crust instead of bread).

[QUOTE]I make a mean roasted chicken/turkey. I brine it in kosher salt with apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, and a ton of herbs for at least 24 hours before cooking it. It's so juicy and moist, I love it.

Sounds like something I need to try. What herbs do you use?

For what I make, I love pasta al forno. It tastes like olive garden and H loves it.
I'm also a big fan of garlic, olive oil, basil and oven-dried tomatoes tossed with pasta. Yum.

I usually toss in some oregano, rosemary, poultry seasoning, bay leaves, and... basil? It really depends on what I have on hand. Before I cook it, I rub an olive oil and herb mix all over the bird too. If you tent it for the first half of cooking, it'll prevent the top from becoming too brown.

I just added a chicken to my grocery list. Thanks :)
BUFFALO CHICKEN MAC 'N CHEESE.
Yep. 'Nuff said. Mmmm...
Roast chicken! Stuff the cavity with a halved lemon, some fresh thyme, a halved garlic head, salt and pepper. Rub the outside with olive oil, salt and pepper. Put on your roasting pan that is lined with sliced bread. Cook at 450F for 20 minutes, then drop down to 375 for 45-60 minutes or until the juices run clear. You get chicken flavored croutons for a salad and an awesome chicken.

That sounds delicious and I hope it isn't a Canadian thing. Please say no.
You're welcome pirate!
I am on the pasta or mexican train. I found a recipe for taquitos. I haven't made enchiladas in a really long time. Or I can be bad and have buff mac n cheese.
