Image
The meals I listed in, Senior Lady:  Food of Love: Valentine's Day,  are easy to prepare. Most of the ingredients aren't expensive. The T-bone steak will be costly. However, it'll cost much less than  a steak dinner at a restaurant. Here are the recipes for some  of the entees and desserts for "Man Food."

In large bowl, mix potatoes, onions, ranch dressing, & bacon pieces. Place the ingredients in greased 9x9 pan/dish. Bake 25-30 minutes. Sprinkle cheese on potatoes. Broil 2-3 minutes.
