    Even if I wanted to do the Stouffer's, it wouldn't pass muster with the ladies. The key here is to look way more skillful than I am.
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

      Thanks, Loin. I wonder what the ingredients would be for the pizza sauce? I need to answer for every ingredient included, so would like to mix my own...

        The ingredients for the pizza sauce I use are tomato puree, salt, corn starch, onion and garlic powder, and corn syrup

          When you brown the ground beef, throw in a few sausages. Throw in the sauce for taste and remove with a little of the sauce and serve on the side.

            Excellent, Loin. I'll think about removing as much of the corn starch and syrup (sugars) as possible.

            rah: Nice touch.

              When I was in the US, most of the tomato sauces I had seemed really sweet... I'm guessing its cultural, but over here tomato sauce only gets a little sugar to counter the tomato's acidity.

                not all tomato sauces. Some still have the acidity. I will always counter that with a bit of brown sugar.

                  Yeah, I wasn't very clear, it's missing an 'if any' after the 'a little sugar'.

                  As an extreme case, I had some pasta at a restaurant in NYC, and I couldn't finish the dish because of the excessively sweet sauce.

                    At some point, you realize that this charade will all come crashing down, right? Perhaps, you should just hang around 14th St.

                      Nah, I'll just continue to focus on the super simple.

                      Not sure about the reference to 14th Street. Are you referring to the pre-transformation 14th Street or post-transformation 14th Street?

                        Tacos?

                        Pasta with olive oil/etc?

                        Salad?

                        Cheese/etc?

                        My spanish coworker invited me to dinner a couple times at his place. All times, the meal was fabulous and very very simple.

                        For example, the salad was lettuce, avocado, pineapple, and walnuts? and was wonderful.

                          Spaniards don't count because they don't usually have full-sized dinners.

                            Shepherd's Pie is rather hard to **** up. Same with chili.

                                I'm surprised there hasn't been a "Unhealthy, Nasty, Hard to Make?" copy-cat thread. Maybe with a reference to English cooking or something.

                                And by surprised, I mean relieved.
