I’ll help you out with a main dish Catfish Marinara get a cake pan fill the bottom with olive oil (only olive oil), put six catfish fillets into the cake pan, put three pinches of curry powder, pour a jar of marinara sauce on to the catfish (five brothers pasta sauce marinara) set it in the oven at 350 for 30 minutes. GOOD LUCK!

This is so simple. Get some chicken cutlets, marsala wine and sliced mushrooms. Flour the cutlets and saute them in a little butter until they are not pink, then add mushroons and saute them a little. Add some marsala wine and a little bit of flour to thicken up the sauce. (you can get the liquor store marsala wine or the kind that is sold in the supermarket) just let it simmer until the mushrooms soften up. The marsala wine will reduce a little bit as the alcohol cooks out of it, so just add a little more until you are happy with the amount of sauce. Just spoon the sauce over the cutlets and serve this with a veg and maybe a potato, rice or some bread and salad and he will love it! Enjoy.

This recipe is really easy.

Cheesy Chicken Pasta.
Chicken.
Poach your chicken pieces in some stock and set aside, until cool enough to handle, and de-bone.
Pasta.
Place in salted boiling water and cook until you get the degree of cooking you like.
Penne or Elbows will do very well here.
Sauce.
Make a normal white sauce and add some grated tasty cheese, remove from heat and stir until it is smooth.

Combine everything and place in an oven proof dish, sprinkle with more cheese and bake until it is bubbling and the cheese has melted and started to brown.

Get some ribs and stick them in a crock pot on low with some BBQ sauce. Let them cook for about 6 hours on low heat. Then they will be very tasty and wonderfully tender.

Serve with a baked potato (take a potato poke a few holes in it and microwave for 7 min or until soft), open a bag of frozen corn and pour in a bowl add a couple pats of butter and microwave. Go to the refrigerated section at the store and pick up some biscuits in a tube and follow the directions on the package. You can add salad on the side if you like!

This is super easy. Just about everyone loves ribs and this is a recipe that tastes like you spent a lot of time and effort on it. You’ll get raves! (the wow)

CUT ribs (3 to 4 pounds) into serving pieces. Place ribs in saucepot. Cover with water. Heat to a boil. Cover and cook over low heat 30 min. Drain.

MIX 1 can (10 1/4 oz.) Campbell’s® Beef Gravy, 3/4 cup barbecue sauce and 2 TBSP packed brown sugar
in large bowl. Add ribs. Toss gently to coat.

Then, you can grill them or cook in 375 oven for 20mins. Turn once at 10min and baste. (Oven- line sheet/rack with foil for easy clean-up)

If you want additional flavor, add ¼ teas cayenne and 2 teas chili powder to the sauce.

You can use either beef or pork ribs. Most people prefer pork. Just pick up some coleslaw or potato salad from the deli. Or Ore-Ida has frozen mashed potatoes you can make in the microwave – super easy. Boil some corn on the cob or fix another veggie and you’ve got a complete meal. I’d pick up dessert at a bakery!

Another wonderful dinner is lasagna from the Dinner Doctor. It only has 5 or 6 ingredients and I swear it’s one the best lasagna’s I’ve ever had. This is from the same author as the Cake Mix Doctor. If you’re starting to cook – I’d definitely recommend the Dinner Doctor. She uses prepared items, canned/frozen items and I’ve made most of everything in the book and they are all REALLY good. Good luck.

I personally would not try to make him anything Italian especially if his mom makes him Italian food. Better yet you could go to her if you are close and ask for her assistance. If that is not an option, check out Kraft foods online. They have a lot of easy recipes. Don’t worry about it being a simple dish, your presentation is what will make the difference.

Here’s a fun thing I like to do – I like eating pancakes with sausage and stuff for dinner. You can make it on a griddle – it’s one giant pan. Put everything there and you’re cooking.
