Have you ever improvised or put your own spin on a meal and had it be a big hit? (Either with others or yourself)

If so, what was it?
If not, if you knew a meal would turn out edible, what kind of meal would you create? What sort of flavors would you like to see mixed together?

My signature meal is spaghetti with a whole jar of pesto thrown in with the spaghetti sauce. I love it, my family loves it, and one time I made it for my girlfriend and her mom in Norway, and her mom said that it was what spaghetti should really taste like. Sometimes instead of normal pesto I use sundried tomato pesto (I used green pesto in Norway). In both cases I use Classico brand pesto, it's my favorite. I couldn't use Classico in Norway, though, since they didn't have it.
