[quote=Anonymous]You can also easily step it a notch with actually being less complicated. I find multi ingredient casserole or slow cooker like dishes to be more complicated and never really taste that good anyway. I'd stay away from the usual lasagne, enchiladas, breakfast casserole or noodle krugel type dishes.

&gt;Good quality cheeses, nuts, preserved fruit or olives etc and good wine. Very little prep just put them out nicely on an appropriate serving platter. Get a selection of charcuterie from costco,  some sliced good quality cheese and water crackers.

&gt;If its a special occasion in the winter and people eat beef do Prime Rib. Its easy and just about buying a good quality piece of meat, following simple techniques and seasoning it. If you do mash potatoes look up the French recipes with lots of butter and how to mash or rice them. Never use a hand mixer. Just oven roast some mushroom and  asparagus with garlic. Add a simple salad.

&gt;If its a special occasion in the summer  go to the grill and use great ingredients with simple marinades. The marinade and seasoning makes all the different. Use lemon or lime-acids make a difference. [/quote]
