Beck made this for dinner after happy hour last night and it was really good. Adapted off of the Mark Bittman blog.

Margeau sent this over after making it this St. Patrick’s Day. It’s a Food Network recipe she had much success with. Great for leftover corned beef.

Thanks to Nick for sending this one along, particularly as I don’t really bake and am happy to share others’ recipes in this department.

Margeau sent this to me for your site – and I’m disappointed I haven’t gotten to try it yet! Looks totally yum.
Eve’s Burnt Honey Ice Cream with Warm Strawberry Salad

This pre-supposes you receive an ice cream maker or attachment for your wedding, but hey. Eve made this when I was up visiting her and it was AWESOME, and I’m not even a sweets person. This is a Food Network recipe.
Risotto

Risotto is one of my favorite things to make. A) I love the taste B) It’s pretty easy once you figure out the basic recipe. C) It’s also really easy to adapt to your taste.
Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding

When Eve made this for me in college, I was blown away with how impressive it is and good it tastes. I’ve changed up her recipe a bit, but the core is the same.
John’s chicken paprikash

John made this once for me and some friends and I thought it was just delicious. It’s a good entertaining dish because it’s not too difficult, but is homey and will please picky eaters. PS: Serve with garlic bread, egg noodles and broccoli.
John’s hot sandwiches

That post title sounds dirty for some reason. Probably because I’m twelve.
These are two of John’s go-to entertaining recipes. I made them myself last night for Scrabble, and they went over really well, particularly the hot roast beef. And they’re so easy, it’s almost embarrassing to call them recipes.
Spanish croquetas

Becky and I made this recipe once when we were having a Spanish feast together, based on a Washington Post recipe. I think this would have benefitted from the use of my deep fryer, as we could have better controlled the temp of the oil.
