NYC007 Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 peppercorn/mirin crusted ahi tuna with wasabi mash potatoes..ladies luv it Quote
selkirk Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 peppercorn/mirin crusted ahi tuna with wasabi mash potatoes..ladies luv it  yeah but what a pain in the ass!  if you hadn't waited til the last minute I'd send the whole seduction meal but ....  "Penne al Pepperoni...."  1 Green Pepper 1 Yellow Pepper 1 Red Pepper 1 Small-med yellow onion (or 1/2 a mayan onion)  Slice thin and Saute in Olive oil until tender.  Spoon it all into a blender, add 2/3 cup heavy cream (or 1/2 and 1/2), a little oregano, a little basil, and a little parsley (other spices to taste).  Blend until somewhat smooth (lots of small chunks of peppers and onions (3-4 mm diameters))  Serve over Penne al dente.  Add white wine, a nice salad with some bitter herbs and balsamic vinegar/olive oil salad dressing, good bread, and you'll be set.  Looks like it takes a lot of works, beautiful presentation, goes well with candles, and it won't leave you with that heavy food gut bomb, so theres no digestion delay in the canoodling!  I'd send you the desert and salad to go with them but don't know them off the top of my head!  and good luck Quote
NYC007 Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 pain, your ideas requires alot more work. Quote
thelawgoddess Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 two of my favorites that my boyfriend's made me are seafoood enchiladas and spicy thai cashew chicken. not things i would normally order in a restaurant but the ones he makes ROCK!!! you'd have to hit him up for the recipes, though. i'd say a pasta with a sauce that requires a little more work than pouring it out of a can (like at least adding sauteeed vegetables and a nice salad) is a very simple yet decent meal. salmon is also a simple one that is perhaps a little more elegant. fajitas are good and easy, too. i love thai food myself. and sometimes steak. mmm, making myself hungry!

iain Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 What about Special K? I'd even add strawberries. Quote
Dru Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 For these rainy dark winter days a nice soup or stew is recommended. With red wine and crusty bread and new butter. Too bad you should have started cooking it 6 hours ago! Quote
Stavrogin Posted January 19, 2005 Author Posted January 19, 2005 well i didn't end up using anyone's ideas...thanks though, maybe next time. Quote

EWolfe Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 well i didn't end up using anyone's ideas...thanks though, maybe next time. Â Gee, I can't imagine why not... Â Hope dinner went well! Quote
Stavrogin Posted January 19, 2005 Author Posted January 19, 2005 thanks misterE, dinner did go real well, and i figured i'd get a bunch of smart-ass suggestions...which is why i posed the question! Quote
thelawgoddess Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 good to hear that the dinner went well ... but how 'bout the dessert? Quote
Dru Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 the best thing about those edible panties is that they are cherry flavour  "but how many carbs do they have" Quote
Dru Posted February 9, 2005 Posted February 9, 2005 I'd avoid serving this. Â Â year of The_Rooster! Quote
