Um. What should I make?
This friday night, my friend Julia and her fiance PJ are planning to come over to my place for dinner. She's budgeting for her wedding so I wanted to make dinner . . . But I don't know what to make. Ideally it'd be something I can either stick in a crockpot or something I can easily make in about an hour.
Do any of you have a "stand-by" dish for company? Last time I cooked for a friend I made a pasta dish with fresh tomatos, spinach, and sausage, but when I go over Julia's she makes something a little fancy so I wanted to kick it up a knotch.
Re: Um. What should I make?
Baked Ziti?
Lasagne-you can make ahead of time...
(I'm all about Italian food as you can see... )
Good suggestions! I'm all about make ahead food when company is coming over. It's nice to just be able to stick something in the oven when they arrive rather than having to be in the kitchen forever.
(cause I'm hogging the post... )
Found this on the Philly Boards (I lurk there... )
Parmesan crumbled chicken:
My stand by is definitely my chicken taco soup. Its easily made vegetarian if you have company coming over, because the original recipe calls for beer as the base liquid, then just leave the chicken out, but I make it with chicken broth instead of beer and keep the chicken breasts in it. Its so easy because you just throw everything in the crock pot in the morning, you can even use frozen chicken breasts, and serve when ready! Its relatively cheap to get all of the ingredients together also! We rarely have leftovers when we serve it for company, but always have it for dinner a second time when I just make it for us.
