Steal my Valentine's Day Dinner Menu

Published over 1 year ago • 1 min read

No matter who you're celebrating with, make valentine's day a night to remember with this perfect Valentines Day dinner menu.

Start the evening with a small cheese board to share while you cook. I like to do a small wedge of triple cream brie, green grapes, fig jam and some simple salty crackers.

For the entree I am making a reverse sear filet mignon with truffle mushroom risotto and air fryer asparagus. If you are not a mushroom person I highly recommend swapping that out for these mashed red potatoes.

I am ending the night with chocolate of course. My go to is a brownie sundae made with these incredible flourless double chocolate brownies. I make a homemade magic shell to go on top of the ice cream by melting 1/4 cup chocolate chips with 1 tbsp coconut oil. Then, I pour that over vanilla ice cream on the brownie and wait for it to harden before digging in.

If you aren't a fan of brownies, try this chocolate ganache cake OR mixed berry cobbler for dessert.

Appetizers and desserts are a critical part of the Thanksgiving meal that can sometimes get overlooked or saved for the last minute. Use this list of appetizers and desserts to add something exciting to your menu beyond the typical pies. I love to start with a charcuterie board so guests can pick at it as they arrive.
