[quote=Anonymous]Trader Joe is your friend. I was you. I had no entrees in my repetoire. And now I have at least 3. I have now done this many many times. One trip there and you have everything. For one to two couple(s) as guests. Informal. Placemats-everyday china. Yes, set table ahead. Hummus and baby carrots for appetizers. Seltzer and make a pitcher of ice water. But two bottles of sauvignon blanc and chill. Main course: 2 packages salmon, 2 bags frozen broccoli florets and 1 big quick farro - salmon and broccoli are 20 minutes on a sheet pan in a 400 degree oven. Pre-heat oven but turn it on when guest arrive. Dessert-no one expects you to bake/make this yourself. Buy sorbet, berries, cookies. Offer decaf coffee. Done! [/quote]
