Some of my favorites:
Shrimp Scampi served over linguine
(requires shrimp, garlic, butter, parsley -- could also be made with chicken)
A more rustic type dish, and alittle messy, which is fun...
Hunter Style Chicken (Chicken Caccitore (I can't spell it))
Dessert
Chocolate covered strawberries
(super duper easy)
In a bowl over a pot of simmering water - so that the bowl is not touching the water but gets the heat, melt a package of chocolate chips - -you decide what kind you want)
add in a tablespoon or two of shortening (crisco works fine)
Stir and melt
Dip Strawberry into melted chocolate and put onto a sheet of waxed paper.
(decorate with chopped nuts, powedered chocolate, cocoanut if you wanna but not necessary)
Once all berries are dipped refridgerate until chilled
Chocolate will harden
Serve with champagne.
