    Ya, you can nuke em... poke fork holes all over em so they don't explode (or slit with a knife). I've seen a few people do this as well, but the potatoes usually turned out a bit greenish and of little flavor

    Ive usually just nuked the potatoes when I cook them but I wanna look like I know what im doing and put them in the oven. So olive oil and 400 degrees for an hour, and what about the asparagus? Olive oil, salt, pepper, and then stir in a pan? How will I know when its done exactly

    on grill, with steak about 5-7 mins.... use grill tray if needed.

    Should be slightly limp but still firm when you bite into it.... and yes, that means you have to sample things as you go

    toss the steak in the freezer and forget about it!

    everytime I've gone out with a chick I don't ever recall them ordering steak even where they specialize in steak!

    pasta's the way to go, even local grocery places have the premade lasagna trays, they aren't too big. Basically buy, set oven, throw in, ready in 20-30 minutes. As stated earlier, make a salad, toast some bread you'll be good and don't over think it. If she's a keeper she'll be down for whatever you make man

    personally, id go to fresh and easy to the frozen section and they got a small bag (enough for you 2) of frozen brocolli, carrots and cauliflower. You can just tossed that in a small little pot with some water (so it wont burn/stick) and drizzle a tad bit of olive oil and put it over a low - medium heat covered for a few minutes. this is to steam it...

    neglect, mostly.
    i always cook for girls. they love it when you do that. and its hell of a lot cheaper than $50 at a restaurant.

    and OP, don't cook chicken until you've really got her in the bag. undercook it and she gets salmonella, overcook it and it's dry and not good. stay with a beef or pork.

    i always like to cook breakfast in the morning. breakfast food dinners are always good and hard to screw up.

    a grilled pork chop is always really good and easy too. some green beans and corn bread or something like that. cant go wrong.

    Hahaha man you dont have to worry about that! She grew up watching ole miss with her family because her dad went to medical school there. I took her to the egg bowl this past weekend and I showed her who to pull for haha. She is a great girl. She isnt stuck up in any way and everyone that I have talked to has always said good things about her. I went to high school with her but never talked to her. But now that we are in college, I said fuck it and it turns out that shes into me. I got really lucky with on this one haha
