10. Calabacitas con crema and a plain omelet.

It's a sauteed veg mix in thickened cream (actually, evaporated milk), heavily altered from Rick Bayliss. One of the few veg dishes I can get DH to not only eat, but enjoy. The veg varies, but always includes zukes, onion, corn and some kind of pepper, plus whatever else looks good. This time, it was a red onion, a poblano chili and a red bell pepper, and I threw some cheese in at the end. Less zuke, more corn.

12. American goulash

It's our turn to make dinner for the gaming group, which means something that can be made in quantity, can be re-heated just before serving, and doesn't have anything any of the eaters will object to (one of them refuses to eat anything beginning with "a&quot . Onion, ground beef, tomatoes, macaroni - with some actual fresh herbs my mother wouldn't have thought of.
