Valentine's Day is such a wonderful opportunity to show love for your significant other through the nurturing act of cooking a meal from scratch; it's love through food, and food for love's sake, which is the special little motto we like to live by here.
I've put together a tantalizing little list of 12 delicious recipes that contain a playful air of romance and passion, plus a healthy sprinkle of whimsy, to tempt and awaken your senses.
For starters...
Crispy Fried Heirloom Tomatoes Caprese Style
Grilled Steak & Avocado-Lime Salsa Crostini
Stuffed Mini Portobello Mushrooms with Italian Sausage & Cheese
For a main course...
Saucy Italian “Drunken” Noodles with Spicy Sausage
Hungarian Red Potato Goulash with Smoked Sausage
Garlic-Crusted Salmon with Fresh Tomato-Basil Relish
Fettucini with Chicken in Parmesan-Roasted Garlic Cream Sauce
Crispy Stuffed Chicken Caprese
Braised Chicken in Porcini-Wine Sauce over Buttered Pappardelle Noodles
And possibly the best & sweetest part, DESSERT...
“Midnight Kiss” Amaretto Parfait with Vanilla Pound Cake & Chocolate Ganache Sauce
Rich & Chocolaty Cookies N Cream Parfaits
May love fill you up completely, and may you enjoy some scrumptious time with your special someone.
Have a happy (and delicious) Valentine's Day!
Taste what's good and pass it on.
