Go to food network for complete meal plans. I particularly like Paula Deen, if you like southern cooking. Her meals are straightforward and easy to prepare.  Some of the others are a little exotic.

Answer 18

In the South Chicken has been a tradition.   Instead of fried;

how about,

seasoning / baking a chicken (or buy it at the grocery if you don't like to cook)

mashed potatoes

corn on the cob

green beans

hot fresh rolls

a nice fresh lemon merg. pie or fruit salad with whipped topping for a lite dessert.

just a different take on an old southern traditon of fried chicken & gravy :)

Its sunday.. so lunch is kind ugh.. lol.. so what i suggest is doing a lupper in between dinner and lunch..

*Make a whole chicken.. but some country herbs.. slow cook it, and put some onions and green peppers in or Lemon slices..

*you can do mashed potatos or macaroni and cheese..

Or you can be a true southern

Make fried chicken mashed potatos, biscuits..

***********************************

Or you can just be simple.. and do a hors de vours.. do crackers.. differnt sliced meats.. cut up fruit and veggies with a chocolate caramel or ranch dip somtehing of that extenst

Answer 20

Check the local markets to see what produce is in season.  Not only will the produce be perfect but the price will also be lower.  Right now, it's asparagus and strawberries.  So, I'd suggest, as something elegant but easy:

Bake chicken breast with salt and pepper (usually 350F for 20 min, depending on thickness).  When its almost done top with a slice of ham and swiss cheese, take out when cheese is melted.  Serve it with mayonaise and mustard mixed together.  Very simple and everyone loves it.

Asparagus is very easy to cook, you can either steam or microwave.  Then add a small amount of butter before serving.

Rice or a nice french bread completes the meal.

For drinks, memosas are fun.  1/2 champagne 1/2 orange juice.

For desert...anything with strawberries.  Sliced pound cake topped with strawberries and whipped cream is great.

The whole meal will be eye appealing, not take all day and your guests will love it.
