I got such wonderful feedback when I did a complete Christmas dinner menu that I thought I would throw together a great Valentine's Menu for you. If you've been reading me for a long time, you might recall that I don't really like Valentine's Day. But I do like having an excuse to cook an exquisite meal for my honey. (And I really like making up menus, in case you couldn't tell!)
Appetizer: Crawfish (or Crab) Fondue, Tasty Kitchen
Bread: Olive Oil Cakes with Lemon and Thyme, The Pioneer Woman Cooks
Entree: Roasted Garlic Chicken, Simply Recipes (although making a really good steak is always a man-pleaser in my house!)
Sides: Asiago Sweet Potatoes, Fresh 365; Roasted Vegetables, Home Ec 101
Dessert: Brownie Pudding, Ina Garten*
Here's a printable grocery list for the menu to make it as easy for you as possible. You DO have to do the cooking, though. Enjoy!
*I saw Ina make this recipe on Barefoot Contessa yesterday. It's what I want and I ain't budging. But if you're not all about eating something full of chocolate and butter (huh??), there are plenty of other dessert recipes here and here.

You're too cute! If only GW would *eat* vegetables like the ones you've got planned!!! YUM! Guess it's a good thing we'll be dining on seafood on the coast...
ReplyDeleteI've been hunting for a long time for this! Thank God I found it on Yahoo.

This sounds absolutely divine!
ReplyDeleteLooks AMAZING!! You're only an hour and a half away, right? What about a double date? I'll bring the fried pickles and peppermint patties... :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the wonderful menu! I've been looking for ideas for a nice standard "company" meal to have when I have people over and I think this is perfect!!

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh - I love love LOVE that you include a printable grocery list! Awesomeness. It's one more step closer to me actually contemplating producing something like this!
ReplyDeleteOoh, that menu looks good! Those olive oil cakes sound delicious, I may have to add that to an upcoming menu!
