1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 (28 ounce) can pasta sauce (your favorite)
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
salt & pepper
1 lb rigatoni pasta

    Prawn Cocktail is really easy starter, garnished with avocado and lettuce.

    Spaghetti Bol is very quick and easy, spice it up with chopped chilli’s and a splash of red wine.

    Have a fruit kebab – forget eating it at the table… take it to bed with whipped cream, chocolate/strawberry sauce and a glass of champagne!

    Spag Bol or Lasagne are really easy or perhaps buy something from the Ready to Cook ranges in M&S and Sainsburys (minimal preparation) and maybe wear his favourite negligee!

    the way to a man’s heart is with a big, juicy, bloody t-bone steak with chips and mushrooms, washed down with a decent red wine.
