What could I cook to put in a valentines day box I made?

admin — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 22:19:04 +0000

Is there a traditional valentines day recipe?

Like biscuits or something?

No cakes, the box isn’t that big. I would like to make it myself because it’s more personal.

Thank you very much for your suggestions!

Try making homemade fudge you can cut them into cubes to fit your box recipe would be on foodnetwork.com or try Hershey.com they have great valentine recipes.

admin — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 22:18:30 +0000

i know how to use the stove and all the basics.
but i want to make a valentines day dinner for my mom and dad.
so are there any easy recipe ideas i can make that taste really good
meal and dessert.
either one works
thanks<3

That is soooo Sweet of you!
Go to allrecipes.com. They have amazing recipes with ratings and you can also see the ones that are less difficult to make.
Do your parents drink red wine? If so, make a simple meat dish with a vegetable and potato. You can make strawberry cheesecake for dessert just by following the recipe on the back of the box of cream cheese. Or Chocolate mousse is a romantic Valentines Day dessert. Seafood is a good choice for Valentines day as well. Pair it with a simple dinner salad and some good quality rolls that you have buttered and sprinkled lightly with garlic. Stay away from unromantic messy things like BBQ ribs or casseroles. Set the table nice and pretty complete with candles and folded napkins. Wow…I wish my kids thought to do something like this!

Chocolate Recipe? Valentines day gift…??

admin — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 21:48:59 +0000

For all of my friends, i’m going to give them a chocolate heart on a stick with red sprinkles, for VALENTINES DAY! Does anyone know some good homemade chocolate recipes? Please no dark chocolate, just plain everyday regular chocolate.

get some heart molds, melt some Hershey’s chocolate chips over a double boiler and pour into the molds, insert stick, sprinkle them, put in fridge to harden!

Inexpensive ideas for Valentines Day… recipes, too.?

admin — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 17:08:42 +0000

My husband and I are buying our first house & closing on Feb. 19th. Plus, our 2nd anniversary is March 10th. So we’ll be a little broke for V-day. I cook dinner every night… but if anyone has a recipe that tastes really gourmet & isn’t a pain in the neck to make, I’ll try it.

We went to Olive Garden last year on Valentines day & it was terrible. It took our waitress took forever & a day to come to our table. Then about 30 minutes to bring out glasses of iced tea, then another 45 minutes to bring out our food. My chicken was undercooked & cold. I sent it back & took another 25 minutes to get another meal… it was awful.

Here’s what I normally keep on hand or can easily get:

-White wine
-Olive oil, margarine, vegetable oil
-Baguette/french bread
-Garlic
-Spices/herbs: basil, crushed peppers (a lot of types of peppers), thyme, oregano, rosemary, salt, pepper, grill seasoning, lemon pepper seasoning, etc.
-Milk
-Boneless skinless chicken breasts
-Salad stuff
-Pasta
-Frozen vegetables
-Onions, potatoes, bell peppers

I don’t like fish.
chef2b77– those are the CUTEST little desserts!!! I’ll definitely make those! Thanks =)

A really easy thing that tastes good and looks nice is grilled chicken with lemon pepper. If you have a Foreman Grill, that will work, or you can bake it. All you do is put a little olive oil and lemon pepper on each side of the chicken, and throw it on the grill! If you’re going to bake it, put it in the oven on 350 for about 20 minutes (but definitely check the middle). Slice it, serve it over some pasta tossed with cheese, get a nice bottle of white wine, and you’re all set!

Chocolate-Strawberry Thumbprints

Makes about 3 dozen You can use any sun-kissed berry atop the cream cheese filling in these crisp chocolate cookies.

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened

4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
4 ounces strawberries (about 6 medium), stemmed and finely diced

1. Sift flour, cocoa, and salt into a bowl; set aside. Melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring until smooth; set aside to cool.

2. Put butter and 1/4 cup granulated sugar into the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy. Mix in yolk, vanilla, and chocolate. Reduce speed to low. Mix in flour mixture until just combined. Refrigerate, covered, 1 hour.

Looking for Valentines Day Recipes for three people.?

admin — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 11:01:25 +0000

My fiance have been together for over a year now and this is our second valentines day together. Last year we made it special and went out and did the date thing. This year money is short but the one thing I can do is make a nice dinner. This year we are inviting my fiance’s mother to dinner because shes done so much for us, and we want to do something nice for her. What I am looking for is a couple of good recipes to use for this dinner. I’m not the worlds best cook but I am ok at cooking so it needs to be kind of easy to medium hard lol. I will have all day to cook so time isn’t the issue. What would be the best thing to make when your future mother in law is coming to Valentines Day dinner. I’m terribly nervous because she is a wonderful cook, and I don’t want to mess this up. Please help me.

I have a wonderful recipe for chocolate fondue that will knock your socks off. The best thing though, this recipe is super easy and can make an unusual and nice presentation.

Instead of the traditional fondue bowl that everyone shares I make individual dessert plates for everyone. I take the chocolate fondue and put in a tiny bowl and set it on a dessert plate. I then surround it with my favorite dippers. ( strawberries, pound cake cut into bite size, marshmallows, etc)

When I am ready to serve the dessert I add the chocolate fondue to the bowls and give everything a quick dusting with powdered sugar. Its easy because the fruit is added to the plates ahead of time.

Heres the recipe I use below. One variation to it…this can even be made in the microwave. I have used a large measuring cup and just warmed it in30 sec to 1 minute intervals. When I am ready to serve, I just hit it for another 30 seconds or so and pour it easily into bowls.

Anyway, heres the recipe. Its one of those, you cant go wrong recipes.
