Being Vegan really forces one to be creative or starve.
I don’t remember what normal food taste like. But I think I make a kick ass spring roll.
Oh and soy ice-cream.
I make an awesome Turkey A'la King but my best dish is
Blend of the Bayou Casserolle. A fantastic spicy dish w/ Crab Meat, Shrimp, Scallops, Clams, and tons of veggies. I always get raves for it (I *THINK* I posted the recipe in a thread here on Gail's board a while back).
I also recently made for me and my Partner an attempt at my Mom's Cranberry Chicken -- that he said was the best thing I've made for him.
1 Chicken (in Parts) -- or assorted Leg/thighs
1 Can Whole Cranberry , Cranberry Sauce
1/2 cup French Dressing
1 packet Instant Onion Soup Mix.
Combine all ingredients , coating the chicken w/ the Mixture.
Place in Glass or metal Baking Pan (make sure it has at least a 1" lip), and pour remaining mixture over the tops of the Chicken.
Cover lightly w/ foil, and bake at 350 for 1 Hour 15 Minutes.
Baste chicken every 15 minutes.
Serve over White Rice or Stove Top Chicken Stuffing. (I served it w/ both, and both Nick and I agreed it was better w/ the Stuffing).
Yummy

I think I make a great broiled flank steak. I marinate it in a mixture of soy, honey, lime, thai chili peppers, sesame oil and garlic overnight. (I basically took all the flavors my hubs-to-be-likes and made a marinade out of it. :) ) I remove it from the marinade, pat dry and broil to medium rare. I serve it with either stir fried bok choy or Viet/Thai style cucumber salad (vinegared cucumbers with a little bit of sugar and red onion) and white rice. My hubs-to-be likes my sour tamarind based soups which are a cross between Viet lau and Filipino sinigang. Mmm, I love food :D

Heh. I've been saying something similar for years.
I make a mean Hot Pocket. I'm a microwave monkey. I spent years in college with only a microwave, so there ya go. The only thing I know how to cook in an oven is frozen pizza or french fries. I'd never used a stove before I met my wife. I still don't get using a pot to make Ramen. You dirty a pot to cook it, then dirty a bowl to eat it? Just boil the water in the bowl in the microwave, then add the noodles and cook again. One bowl!

I'm more of a preparation/planning person than a cook but I've got some decent ideas and the best is the Swedish Meatball Wrap.
Basically it is a tortilla wrap with Swedish meatballs covered in cheese with tomato pickle. It works really well as a snack.
I also make a mean Pasta Salad, as I'm better at preparation than cooking so boiling some pasta isn't rocket science.

Well, I make a spicy lasagna that everyone I've served it to seems to love (it's become a holidy tradition for my family and friends).
And I also make a dish my friends call "Cajun chili" (though it's not necessarily Cajun and not exactly chili)... shrimp and crawfish (already cooked an peeled) marinated overnight in a mixture of Cajun Sunshine, crushed red pepper, and garlic and then blackened. That gets added to a pot of red beans and rice along with some sauteed red and green bell peppers and some assorted seasonings. Then let it all cook down.
There's also my broccoli, rice, and cheese casserole that disappears quickly at pot luck lunches at work.

" Bachelor cuisine " here.
I can cook stuff so it's not over or underdone and I'm the king of microwave meals :D
I've taken over the cooking since my mom had a stroke 6 years ago for the family..
One thing I make that EVERYONE loves is a slight variation on a beef wellington.
I take layer of puff pastry and spread a minced mushroom, parsley, bread crumb and shallot mixture on it. Then I add a strip of seared premium tenderloin beef and more mushroom mix on top. Then close it off with another layer of puff pastry and I bake it.
To go with it is a cep cream. Ceps are a type of mushroom, almost similar to porcini mushrooms in flavour. I take some dried ceps and soak them, then reduce into a thick syrup. Add cream and warm it up and there you have it. Its got a slightly muted bitter flavour to it that is so smooth and rich when mixed with the cream.... Mmmmm goes soo well over the pastry and beef.

I make this coconut custard pie that I bring to family gatherings. They love it, but it's embarassingly easy to make, mixing eggs, milk, sugar and (the secret ingredient) corn muffin mix, which settles on the bottom and makes the crust. Blend, pour into pyrex pie pan, and add coconut and bake.
I've done it so often I'm getting cocky, last time I used egg nog instead of milk, (at Christmas) & people still like it. Maybe next time I'll try chocolate milk.
And here's the recipe :
2 c Milk 1 c Coconut; flaked or shredded
1/4 c Butter 3/4 c Sugar
1 1/2 ts Vanilla 3/4 c Corn Muffin mix
4 Eggs
Heat oven to 350F. Grease pie plate, 9x1 1/4" or 10x 1/2". Place all
ingredients in blender container. Cover and blend on High 15 seconds. Pour
into plate. Bake till knife inserted in centre comes out clean, 50 to 55
minutes; cool.

It's not a recipie, but it's a helpful hint: Coat chicken breasts with olive oil before broiling them; it helps keep 'em moist.
My speciality is omlets. I put 2 tsps of olive oil in the skillet, turn the heat to medium to get it to spread around, then put black pepper, crushed red pepper, and a blend called Italian spices into the oil to prepare it.
I make one huge omlet that I share with my wife, so I use six large or jumbo eggs and whip them by hand with an egg beater until the whites and yolks are thoroughly mixed. If I'm not adding any other ingridients, I sometimes add a quarter cup of milk to make them lighter.
Into the pan I may add any number of ingridients, including mushrooms, scallions, olives, sweet pepper strips, or even sausage and ham. I let them cook about three minutes then add the egg batter over them.
The trick is in cooking them slowly, and giving the eggs enough time to gain enough tensile strength so they can be lifted loose and flipped (you need a big spatula for this). My success rate is about 1 in 4 for a perfect flip, 2 in 4 for a ugly but workable flip, and 1 in 4 for scrambled eggs.
Once flipped sprinkled cheese on half the cooked side (I use a variety but prefer Mexican 3-blend or swiss, jack, or mozarella to cheddar). Continue cooking until the cheese starts to melt on top, then flip the other half atop it, flip one more time for about a minute to even the melting, then cut in half or thirds and serve.

Fried bananas, best on the East Coast.
Slice green plantains, about 1/2 thick, allow to dry 4-6 hours, until they have a rubbery texture, but are still moist.
Coat hands with oil to avoid bruising or staining, and rub slices with spices to flavor to taste: salt, pepper, curry, turmeric, lime powder, garlic, cayenne pepper, ground spinach, ground jalapeno, a dozen others (there's no rule for these, except that you ned a little salt and pepper; it's never the same twice).
Fry in olive oil until they're a golden brown. Serve as is or with a variety of sauces. I prefer Korean barbeque, but Emily is partial to horseradish.
I also make a pretty good adobo, but anyone can make a decent adobo.

I can't cook, but my partner is incredible in the kitchen.
He makes a caramel apple chocolate cheesecake that could make you instantly diabetic! Its a graham cracker crust that is topped with sliced apples, caramel and chopped nuts. He bakes it (like an apple pie), and then adds a layer of cheesecake. Then once it all settles, he adds a crisp chocolate layer on top of the cheesecake and covers it with more caramel and chopped nuts, and a ring of whipped cream around the edge of the pan.
He also makes kick-ass Mexican cuisine (since he is half-Mexican, after all). Our friends are addicted to his grilled chicken fajitas, rice, and homemade salsa (it burns!). He also makes an incredible nacho/queso dip with a ton of melted cheese, beans, ground beef, and other odds & ends. Oh, and his spicy mashed pototoes....mmmm. He mashes the pototoes, and mixes in fresh garlic, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese and diced jalapenos.
And I can't forget his salad. NOBODY knows how he makes his dressing....he just grabs some oil and a TON of spices, and throws it together with romaine lettuce, spinach, tomotoes, peppers (red, green and yellow), leeks, grilled chicken, bacon, feta cheese, and few other items.
I did "cook" once. Well, not really, but I made something. My friend taught me how to take Reese's Peanut Butter cups and wrap them in peanut butter cookie dough. You let the dough harden until it is about the texture of a really flexible cookie, and then add a scoop of cheesecake mixture to the top of it. Let it settle again, and then top it with some chopped nuts and a drizzle of caramel. Bite sized diabetic-coma inducing treats :)

And you've just summarised my culinary skills in one sentence. Congratulations! :D

Lunch Made for a Manly Man:
What you need:
2 packets Creamy Chicken Ramen
2 Eggs
2 Boneless Pork Breasts
A liberal amount of tobasco sauce
Make the Creamy Chicken Ramen per usual. When done boiling, drain water, add flavor packet and a liberal amount of tobasco sauce.
Make eggs however you want, while they are still runny, add a liberal amount of tobasco sauce.
Throw the Pork in a George Foreman grill. When finished cook, spread some tobasco sauce on top.
Cut up Pork into bite sized chunks and break apart the egg into pieces. Place all of this in the Ramen and serve.
Delicious.
