Making dinner for girlfriend for Valentines day

[TeamZero]

She isn't really partial to anything in paticular, nor does she really dislike anything in paticular.

Something less common but still not a hassle to make would be preferable.

Let the suggestions come! Either a link to the recipe or a recipe posted would be nice too

 

[DaShen]

that is what you have foodtv.com and epicurious.com for. I am sure they have many easy recipes right now for v-day (valentine's that is).

Broiled fish, fries, wine to go with fish, nice salad?

 

[SoulAssassin]

Anything Italian is probably good....

 

[giantpinkbunnyhead]

Nachos with tomato sauce topping, and crushed McDonalds apple pie for dessert!

 

[Lola]

what about a roast? when you get good beef and don't over cook it, it can be wonderful, plus once you do it, its pretty much done. add some mashed potatoes and salad and a simple dessert like chocolate covered strawberries!
Or, do cast iron steaks with baked potatoes and roasted winter veggies... or roast a whole chicken with a pomegranate glaze.

That looks really good.

Italian food is always romantic with a nice red wine. Maybe penne a la vodka or ravioli. You can make a nice salad with it too. I had some good Italian wine over the weekend too, Volpolicella and Montepulciano. Good stuff if you like wine!

chicken cordon bleu, if done well, is fantastic. ditto for chicken kiev. theyre just a tad messy to prepare.

 

[Jeeebus]

you should be concentrating on breakfast...

if she's not around for that, dinner wasn't worth the while.

I've done that exact Alton Brown Recipie. Its good.

I've found is a rub for steak thats pretty tasty. It tastes like an Australian steak.

4 teaspoons salt
4 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon coriander
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
