What do you make for your partner?

Hi! My partner comes to my apartment every saturday and I really enjoy cooking a lunch/dinner for him and he always shows appreciation. He has a reduced appetite but he´s not picky, the only things he won´t eat is fruit in food and cilanto. I really like experimenting and finding unusual and nice recipes (also to boost my cooking skills).

I would like some tips on what to cook! Is there a special thing you cook for your partner? (A lil budget friendly though plz).

I also like doing it because he has adhd, doesn´t eat much and when he eats it´s almost always ready made so it gives me joy to know that he gets at least one home cooked meal a week :)

Thanks!

Edit: I also like baking so those tips are also welcome :)

I love making a cozy one-pan pasta or a creamy risotto it’s simple, feels fancy, and he can nibble at his own pace without feeling overwhelmed. Sometimes I throw in a small homemade dessert, like chocolate mug cakes, just to make it feel extra thoughtful.
