It’s Valentine’s Day today! Hopefully you remembered to get the flowers, the thoughtful card and book dinner reservations for you and your valentine… But what if you forgot and it’s too late for dinner and gifts? Can’t get a babysitter? Well, we’ve got you covered! With a quick trip to the grocery store, a romantic dinner at home can be both dinner and a thoughtful gift.
Set the stage with candles, wine (or non-alcholic bubbly?)… maybe turn it into a picnic on the floor? Jump out of our comfort zone and show your other half that it’s the thought that counts. Even if that thought was last minute!
Here are some great romantic recipes to consider for tonight’s menu. Just mix and match to create a unique dining experience for the two of you:
Appetizers
Garden salad with homemade dressing
Main courses
Feta and spinach stuffed chicken breasts
Balsamic penne pasta with asparagus and tomatoes
Sides
Balsamic roasted Brussels sprouts
Desserts
Chocolate covered strawberries
Easy roasted pears with balsamic & honey
Hopefully this gives you a little inspiration to create your own special dinner tonight. And don’t forget to stop by your grocer’s flower isle… you might just be in luck and find a lovely bouquet for your special someone.
Don’t have a special someone? Why not reach out to your pals and have a friend-focused Valentine’s day? There are no rules here! Love is love, and don’t we all deserve to give and receive? Pamper those closest to you today and… Happy Valentine’s day!
