Ooooh!! I'm not much of a cook (at least not yet... I have hopes.. ) but there's this REALLY easy apple crisp thing that I make that everyone is always really impressed by, and it's mmMMMmmm delicious. And it really is ridiculously EASY. I'll post it later in the day.

This is my own creation: 1/2 Green Bell peper - thinly sliced 1/2 Sweet onion - thinly sliced 1 ripe tomato - diced Place in aluminum foil, sprinkle liberally with Italian Seasoning mix Add liberal amount of olive oil Place on BBQ grill, low setting. While this is cooking, cook 1 lb. chicken breast tenderloins on the grill, 7 minutes per side, then add to the above mixture and cook for 10 more minutes. When finished, remove from aluminum foil, place on plate, spinkle on liberal amount of grated parasean cheese and mozarella cheese. Serve with Caesar salad and half frozen diet coke. Makes two servings.

Garlic Bread Grilled Ham and Cheese with Sundried Tomatoes A "let's put a bunch of random shit I found in my fridge" sandwhich that was delicious. You will need: 1 container of whole sun dried tomatoes in olive oil (preferably with spices and the such inside) 1 package of thinsliced ham 1 package of your favorite cheese (I use provolone usually) 2 pieces of whole wheat bread Butter Minced Garlic (in the container with the liquid) Set up the sandwhich by putting one piece of cheese on each side. Lay the sundried tomatoes on one piece of the cheese so it's covered with them (they will be quite oily from the olive oil). Put the ham on the stove so it gets nice and hot. This is nice both to make sure the ham is cooked in a different way it would be cooked in the actual sandwhich, better cooked, and it gets started on heating up the other ingredients. Put on top of the tomatoes, and flip over the other piece of bread with cheese. Put a bit of butter on the pan so it melts and then put the sandwhich on. Do the same for the other side. When both sides are buttered, put anywhere from 1-3 teaspoons of minced garlic on (I am not very good at directions). See warning below when determing how much to put on. Cook on LOW HEAT. This is essential I have finally learned because it cooks the bread to perfection slowly, and makes sure the insides get cooked as well. I find that if I am in a hurry and cook it at high heat, the bread can get burnt as hell but the insides will barely get cooked. You can make the cheese beautifully melted and the insides cooked as well as the bread perfect if you keep the heat on low. This will take a while. Serve with nuts or crackers and a drink of your choice for an amazingly delicious and healthy sandwhich WARNING: This sandwhich will make your breath smell very, very bad. Also your body, as the garlic smell comes through the skin. So eat it when you don't have social functions for a while, and make sure to take a shower a while later Also: You can replace the whole sundried tomatoes with sundried tomato pesto in the olive oil. This is easier to spread, easier to cut, and easier to eat (its easy to chew sundried tomatos, but very very hard to cut it in half with your teeth without pulling the whole thing out). PS: I know it is retarded that I am telling you how to make the sandwich, but that's what everyone was doing, plus I have found that doing it that way is generally the best way. The only thing that can be done to your discretion really is how you want to butter the bread and put on the minced garlic, or maybe the order of the ingredients.

This sounds wonderful, Oros, but.. what is a "DL"? Deciliter. Remember, most places outside of the US use a measurement system that is pertinent to the current millennium. Dutch Apple Pie: Filling: 4 apples, peeled, cored and sliced 1 cup white sugar 2 TBSP melted butter 1 tsp cinnamon 3 TBSP flour Combine all ingredients in large bowl and then fill the prepared pastry shell. (yeah yeah I just use a frozen pillsbury shell - making your own is too messy for the minor flavour boost). Topping: 1/2 cup brown sugar 1/2 stick of butter 1/2 cup flour 1 tsp cinnamon Combine all ingredients with your fingers and sprinkle over the top of the pie. Bake at 400 on a cookie sheet until apples are soft and juice bubbles slowly - about 50 minutes. (This has come out perfect the 5 or so times I've made it)

Lasagne 1 lb ground beef 5 slices bacon 6 ounces stewed tomatoes 1 onion 2 garlic cloves 1 green pepper 6 mushrooms 7 olives 6 sun-dried tomatoes red wine balsamic vinegar salt pepper oregano 2 cups milk 1-2 cup flour 3-4 tablespoons parmesan cheese mozzarella cheese lasagna sheets Directions Chop the onion, garlic, mushrooms, bacon, olives and sun dried tomatoes before you start to cook. Cook the onions and garlic first. Add the beef and brown about half-way through. Add green pepper, mushroom, olives, sun-dried tomatoes and bacon. Add the stewed tomatoes. Cut them apart with the spatula or a knife as you add them. Add as much red wine and balsamic vinegar as you wish. (I think the secret of the lasagna is in the wine and vinegar though, so I add about 3 tablespoons and a 1/4 of a cup). Add salt, pepper, and oregano to taste. Let the sauce stew as long as needed (the longer the better). Meanwhile, heat the milk gently in a saucepan. Add the flour gradually, stirring constantly. Add the parmesan cheese to the sauce as well. When the white sauce is thicker than pancake mix (about 10 minutes), remove from heat. In an 8x8 or round lasagna dish, layer like this: meat layer, lasagna sheet, white sauce. Finish with a white sauce layer and cover with mozzarella cheese. Cook at 350 for about 20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly.
