Stick with the tried-and-true, something you make well and like - pasta
with a meat sauce is fine. Fancy it up with some garlic cheese bread
and a nice light dessert (purchase the dessert if you have to) like a
mix of sorbets with shaved chocolate on top.
On our first meal at home, I grilled DH the most fabulous ribeyes. He
said it was the best steak he had ever eaten. I have not been able to
replicate them again, in the last 7 years...but we're still married.
