I tend to avoid anything that involves extensive prep time and attention to detail. I'm more of a "make something that LOOKS fancy but is actually simple" types.

Some examples:

- marinated grilled lamb loin chops
- broiled duck breast
- spinach salad with pear and bleu cheese, ingredients vary based what I have on hand.
- baked brie with baguette
- beef carpaccio

All simple, easy, and straightforward to make with minimal prep work, but people always think I've slaved all day
