Men CAN cook!!!

You never know what men can do when they set their minds to it! I've tried both of these recipes and they really are good. So, in honor of the men that bother to cook...this section is all of their recipes. When you find a man who is creative enough to cook and care what they're cooking, you can usually count on him being a great guy. So, these are their recipes:

Hi Meg,

here's one of my favourites.

I won't be specific with quantities, just use what you think.

Boil some pasta twists up and in another pan some new potatoes, canned if available.In a fying pan, add some olive oil, chopped celery, scallions (we call them spring onions), red pepper slices. Fry till cooked.

Drain a can of Tuna or two, mix with mayonnaise.

When the pasta and potatoes are cooked, drain and mix with the scallions, celery and pepper slices.

Serve and add a dollop of tuna and mayonnaise on top.

Hi Meg,

here's another for the kids,

they call it cowboy pie,

fried sausages, baked beans in a caserole dish with mashed potatoe and grated cheese on top.

How easy is that, but it's one of there favourites.


OK...here is another "man recipe". They don't have as much experience writing recipes as we do so they do it a bit differently, but I think you get the idea...this one sounds really good!

I like the easy Shepherd's Pie.Grease (olive oil) a baking dish, line it with mashed potatoes. Add a nice thick layer of cooked ground beef - sauteed onions and green peppers with it! - (raw ground beef makes for one greasy, soupy, inedible mess!), cover the layer with grated cheese - cheddar is good, but I kinda prefer Mozarella - then add a layer of mashed potatoes.I like to swirl the mashed potatoes to make the top look like meringue peaks. You can sprinkle the top with paprila and/or cheese for color. Then bake that sucker until the tops of the potatoes are brown and the cheese is bubbly. A medium oven is fine.Serve it using one of those pie slice servers. And try not to burn your tongue. Heheheee!
