PP never said that’s how they make their baked ziti, so why are you assuming? That’s not how I make mine.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:I’m not the PP but if you’re going to turn your nose up at baked ziti then don’t come.

Please no baked ziti. If you have to resort to a jarred sauce, ground beef, pasta all baked into a casserole, just get good takeout.
Do you at least make your own sauce?
This is such a typical DCUM remark.
Not really. It is rude to have company over for dinner and put zero effort into a meal. Jarred sauce plus pasta, and a bag of shredded cheese, baked it the oven is a total cop out. Just order good take you can’t cook or don’t want to be bothered.

nope. I don’t really enjoy cooking. I do it because I have to.

No one wants Thanksgiving for a dinner party not on Thanksgiving.

Marinade of buttermilk, salt, garlic, rosemary, paprika (or red chilly flakes if you like heat), lemon. Dunk in cornish hens - I am fine with serving 1 cornish hen per person. Marinate for 3 hours in fridge. Next day, put it in oven and in 30 minutes you will have the juiciest, insanely beautiful looking hens!
Serve with slices of lemon, and mushroom risotto. Fabulous.
This is really an absolutely decadant, easy, recipe. It comes out looking as if you have slaved for hours. ANd it is melt in your mouth delicious.
Here is a tip. This is the very best recipe to serve for TG and Xmas.
This sounds amazing! Can you please provide the measurements and cooking heat?

The OP says she usually goes all out with food. Isn’t this kind of going all out?

If its a casual thing, I like to do fajitas or a taco bar -- everyone can make their own to their liking.
this time of year, chili bar is a great option too.

How many people do you have in mind OP? You can pick from most recipes if having 8 people or less. But more than that and things get more complicated and you have to pick things you have the space, cookware, capacity

Pretty sure OP doesn’t want to cook a whole thanksgiving dinner, as the title is “easy” meals for company

I make a tapas style dinner. What it includes depends on the time of year, but here are some ideas (I'm vegetarian, but meat-eaters enjoy this too)
tortilla española
olives
cheese and baguette (fig jam sometimes too)
grapes or berries on the cheese plate
hummus
baba ganouj
roasted red pepper dip
spiced nuts
roasted veggies
gazpacho
Spanish style spinach and garbanzos
patatas bravas

I’d be happy someone cooked for me, sounds great.
We usually grill chicken and steak, and make fajitas or buy Cava dips and serve that with grilled chicken kebobs and salad.
