Paella and lasagna are standing out to me. Thanks for all the great ideas. I love cassoulet but not sure my wife will go for that one, same with the duck. Prime rib is in the freezer and probably on the menu next weekend. Risotto is another one we haven't had in a while. I'm leaning toward paella since I've never made it before. That would require some good seafood, and I'm not making that trip this afternoon. So I'm now thinking about doing paella tomorrow night. It may be takeout tonight, but Saturday night paella would be a huge success. Way to come through on the ideas!
I don't have a paella pan, but I have a good, large stainless steel pan with maybe 2.5" sides. Will that do the trick? Otherwise a smaller cast iron.
