Men Make Dinner Recipes

What’s for dinner. In my family growing up that question was primarily answered by mom.  Dad made pancakes, and BBQ.  The rest was left to mom to figure out 355 days a year.  My dad did not know his way around a kitchen. 

Flash forward to today and my loving husband Scott is the same way.  To be a fly on the wall when I tried to teach him how to make spaghetti.   (I found spaghetti noodles in interesting places for days)!  Now he can assist me with simple tasks with very explicit directions.  After my aneurysm left me unable to go to the kitchen, I give him lists of ingredients, utensils, supplies and I reach for the extra supply of patience needed for describing things I don’t think twice about.  To bad this day is not celebrated everywhere. 

To be fair to there are a lot of men who enjoy the task.  Famous chefs include a large number of men, but for those who do not know what a colander is here are some easy recipes that impress with flavor.
