Valentine’s Day Dinner Ideas

With Valentine’s Day just 5 days away, many couples are using the time they have left to finalize any reservations or solidify plans to ensure that the day and/or night is a sweet success. But for those who would prefer to enjoy each other’s company at home rather than out on the town, these next few days likely mean making last minute trips to the grocery store to pick up all of the ingredients needed to make a fine home cooked meal. Which type of plans do you prefer?

If your Valentine’s Day agenda involves cooking at home for or with your special someone, check out the following dinner ideas, courtesy of allrecipes.com –

Filet Mignon  – You certainly can’t go wrong with a dinner date that has Filet Mignon on the menu! Regardless of how it is served, this traditional dinner is sure to be a hit.

Chicken Parmigiana – If Italian food is number one on your partner’s list of favorite foods, chicken parmigiana should be number one on your list of things to serve!

Lobster – Looking to give seafood a shot? From lobster bisque to lobster rolls, lobster dip, lobster tails and more, you can impress your date in more ways than one!

Shrimp – Continuing with a seafood theme, shrimp prepared over pasta or on the side can be just as effective as any of the dinner ideas listed above!
