My favorite recipe is Macaroni Cassarole or something or other.

Mac and cheese, throw in tuna, peas and corn.

A good dinner cheat is buying the family size lasagna's from the store.

Another one of my favorite dinners is rice pilaf.

Brown assorted amount of rice with butter.

throw in enough water
cut up veggies and throw them in.

Sometime i subsitute chicken broth for water as its all simmering.

And sometimes i broil chicken, cut it up skin and all and throw it in.

Good well balanced meal.

i do sort of the same thing with spagetti.

With the sauce i throw in assorted veggies. Adds flavor and nutrients.

Another good cheat meal is those tuna helpers. Personally i cant stand hamburger helper, but tuna helper is good = )

And tonight we had little steak filets wrapped in bacon with mashed potatoes and cold green beans from the can. LOL

Awesome thread folks! As i always run out of ideas for dinner.

Lest we forget.......

most men cannot sport wood 24/7 nor can a woman have proud nipples for this time.

Basics.....eat, warm, social interaction, needs fullfiled and life...can we find romance in that when the kids have filled the basement and ran a baseball bat thru every window because.........well, yah because.....

what a nice and reasonable thread.........and I of course am not reasonable

A roux is not a mother sauce. A roux is the base of some of the mother sauces, and is simply a thickener. And can be a very tasty thickener at that.

Mother Sauces - Also called Grand Sauces. These are the five most basic sauces that every cook should master. Antonin Careme, founding father of French "grande cuisine," came up with the methodology in the early 1800's by which hundreds of sauces would be categorized under five Mother Sauces, and there are infinite possibilities for variations, since the sauces are all based on a few basic formulas. Sauces are one of the fundamentals of cooking. Know the basics and you'll be able to prepare a multitude of recipes like a professional. Learn how to make the basic five sauces and their most common derivatives. The five Mother Sauces are:

*

Bechamel Sauce (white)
*

Veloute Sauce (blond)
*

Brown (demi-glace) or Espagnole Sauce
*

Hollandaise Sauce (butter)
*

Tomato Sauce (red)

www.epicurious.com and www.foodtv.com are two good sites for recipes.

Have fun!
