If you're cooking on Valentines Day what are you making?

Looking to see if there's something else that sounds interesting but right now I think I'm making a Pernil al Forno with some roasted potatoes and a not yet decided vegetable side. I also have to figure out if I'm going to bake a dessert or go to a bakery.

Re: If you're cooking on Valentines Day what are you making?

  • Rob surprised me with dinner last night since he is at a sales meeting ,ist of this coming week and is t sure if he'll be home Tues or not. So he made a seafood risotto with scallops and monk fish. It was super good,one of my favorite meals so it was a nice great since good monk fish is hard to find.

  • I'm doing chicken parmesan with spaghetti. For dessert Julia requested rice pudding, so I'm going to make that and use food coloring to dye it pink.

  • I already made this for Tuesday -  Lightened Up Eggplant Parmigiana

    nothing special since I work Tuesdays and don't usually get home until around 6:30...plus MIL eats dinner with us on Tuesdays.

    In the past I've made some of Frank's favorites for both dinner and dessert.  

  • I am on no carb so we are making a nice steak dinner with asparagus & he will have some kind of starch side.

    I <3 you!!  Thanks for posting about the rice pudding. I forgot about the great Cuban rice pudding we had at a restaurant while on vacation at Disney. That will be perfect and go with the Latin theme. Now off to find a really good recipe.

  • Original plan was London broil, but we changed our minds to this: http://annies-eats.com/2010/12/16/french-style-stuffed-chicken-breasts/

    Plus green beans and hassle back potatoes, I think. 

     I'm going to make these on Monday night for our dessert on Tuesday: http://www.blissfullydelicious.com/2012/02/chocolate-pots-de-creme-for-two/

  • I'm not cooking since I work till 6 on Tuesday and DD has girl scouts till 7.  DH says he is making dinner which scares the beejesus out of me since the grill in put away in the basement and I think in all our years together he's cooked maybe once
  • So glad I could help Smile

  • We're probably going to have a roast beef in the crock pot with potatoes and probably baby carrots tossed in for good measure.  I will take the opportunity to pick up a small cheesecake from the local Amish market for dessert.

    I saw you post about these this week and ran to get them... simple. We're going out Saturday so this will do for Valentines Day. 

  • Laura's daycare had a date night on Friday, so we went out ALONE, it was really wonderful.  So for the actual day, it will be filet mignon, asparagus and sherried mushrooms.  Nothing special dessert planned, but Dove makes a tasty 70 calorie ice cream and chocolate treat that found its way into the shopping cart today.
