I cooked a meal for my wife on our first date.

That seemed to turn out well.

The first time I cooked for my Wife, she said. I'm never cooking for you.

It's not a competition with me as far as who cooks better. She seems to think it is sometimes, and I've had to assure her it is not. Sometimes the best meal is a couple of grilled cheese, and a bowl of soup.

I can appreciate a good meatlof, but also seeing what Thomas Keller is coming up with out of the French laundry.

Scott Bryan.

I've watched several shows on him, and his food and style are what I aspire to. Good tasting food prepared well, without to much fuss.

My wife sometimes thinks it is. She is often afraid to cook. I try to encourage her to take risks with tastes and spices she likes, but she doesn't. She'd prefer to cook meat and serve it with ketchup.

I'm not a big fan of the ketchup....

I've thrown away, or ended up calling for pizza a few times when a recipe just has not worked. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Gotta take risks in life.

I cook when its grill-able or Foreman-able.

If I were single I'd probably just grill a hunk of meat each night and eat it with stir fry veggies.

That's exactly what I meant by plain and basic. lol

Pretty much every meal I eat consists of "meat" and vegetable.

Meats: Venison burger, venison steak, chicken, steak. I'll throw in some fish if I ever remember to thaw it out.

Carbs? Unlikely. lol
