What's the best thing you cook or bake?

[sneetch]

Last night I told H I was in the mood for this steak he makes with chimichurri sauce, so we might have it this weekend.  We got to talking and I realized I don't really have a meal (or dessert) I make that he requests, or anyone really.   The closest I have is when people ask me to bring pasta salad to picnics, but there's so little involved with it that I don't count it.  I don't love to cook so I don't know why this is bothering me a little.   Is there anything you make that's amazing or your go-to dish?

I love my eggplant parm. H loves my lentil soup. There are so few things that I make over and over again.

When we have parties, people rave over my salsa, sangria, and this candied jalapeno dip I make.

At Christmas I am always asked to bring my roasted vegetables, and my snickerdoodles are always a hit. H loves my mustard turkey tenderloin and turkey chili and baked rice with butternut squash.

Meatballs, dessert (trifle - I made bakingdom's rollo trifle -ahmazing), or a punch (alcoholic) are what people generally ask me for.

That sounds delicious. If you ever decide to try to make a vegan version, you should send it to me.
