Answer 1

Good on you for wanting to branch out and try something new!  What a lucky husband you have.

It depends what sort of food he is in to, but Italian food is always fun and rather romantic (ahh those Italians).  To give you some options I'll suggest the following simple recipes... if you are cooking three courses it's good to keep it simple. :

STARTERS:

Garlic bread - spread small thin pizza bases with garlic butter and baked in the oven.

OR

Soup - buy a nice gourmet soup from your supermarket.

OR

Stuffed peppers:

MAINS:

Grilled salmon with pesto

OR

Wrap chicken b*****s with parma ham, place in dish with white wine sauce (you can buy this from your supermarket) and bake.

OR

A great hearty pasta dish - recipe ideas here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2...

(Or simply cook some fresh pasta - penne, linguine, whatever you like - then throw together a sauce, with lightly browned pine nuts, chopped cherry tomatoes, fresh basil, a little bit of pesto and some olive oil).

DESSERTS:

Ice-cream or sorbet served with fresh fruit

OR

Chocolate brownie with icing sugar and a scoop of vanilla icecream

OR

Some nice cheeses (brie, chedder, etc) with crackers and grapes, and you can sit and drink wine and eat cheese and talk intimately..... lovely!!

Happy cooking and have a lovely meal.

Answer 2

TRY fish and rice pilaf maybe talapia or salmon with lemon pepper but rice pila goes great with it and a light salad with his fav dressing n some nice wine.

Answer 3

Tomato Bisque.

Shepherd's Pie.

Bananas Foster.

Answer 4

Men love lamb shanks:

Two lamb shanks in a casserole dish

cover with one can of chopped tomatoes

add a clove of garlic

one chopped onion

one teaspoon of beef stock

and bake on 150 degrees celcius (medium heat) for 4 hrs

serve on bed of mash potato

The meet will fall off the bone and it is the easiest thing in the world to make, the tomatoes will make their own sauce, no need to add anything other than these ingredients and no need to disturb during cooking time. This will become your favourite dish especially in the winter.
