Fettuccine with Sweet Pepper-Cayenne Sauce
This is delicious and easy to make, and reheats as tasty as it was straight from the skillet. Like others I found it necessary to use less broth (but I used a stock cube to get the same amount of flavor with less water) and more sour cream to get the texture just right. I agree with other reviewers that it has the extra virtue of being very cheap; I got 4 meals out of one batch for under $20, and that includes adding ham (though chicken would've been better in retrospect). A lot of reward for very little effort!

Chocolate Buttermilk Cake
Fabulous cake. I made 3 of them (and this is a very big cake!) for guests who went nuts with joy and ate the lot - this after they had already been well-fed and watered. One proviso is that I put the layers individually by the window to cool and they all stuck to the plates. But that is a small complaint when one considers the reason - the high-level fudginess of this cake. Mmm. Definitely one to put on your list.

Chicken Tequila Fettuccini
This recipe is truly fabulous. Particularly handy is that there are four major elements (the lime paste, the pasta, the veg and the chicken) that you can prepare earlier then combine in 5 minutes whenever you are ready to eat, which would make it ideal for a dinner party entree. My other half was in raptures over it and is now convinced that I am a domestic goddess. Handy tip - to keep flavor, save the oil you cook the chicken in, and use it to cook the veg.
