Here's Your Weekly Meal Plan 🍽️


Hi Reader,

Valentine's Day is this week! I have chosen MY favorite date dinner as this week's highlight recipe. I've also picked out some other date night favorites. Hope you enjoy! 💘

Weekly Meal Plan 🍽️

Here's our suggestions for delicious meals, sides to go with them, and a breakfast and dessert idea as well! [See previous meal plans ​here​].


Serve with Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus

These Spicy Potatoes are great on the side

Homemade breadsticks or salad work great as a side

Serve with Crockpot Corn on the Cob

Perfect over rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles!


A beautiful display

Isn't this cakeplate gorgeous?? It comes in white or green and has a few different styles. Great for cookies, cake, brownies creme brulee, and even cocktails!


Breakfast and Dessert

Heart Shaped Pop Tarts

Sweet heart shaped pop tarts made with a Jiffy pie crust mix, a cookie cutter, and a whole lot of love!

Valentine Heart Cupcakes

Our adorably easy valentine cupcakes are shaped like hearts and covered in white, pink, and red frosting.


Bonus Romantic Cocktails

French Martini

This is my favorite drink! Vodka, raspberry liqueur, and pineapple juice, shaken until chilled and frothy.

Pink Mudslide

This desserty drink adds fresh strawberries into the mix for a fruity take on a frozen cocktail classic.

I would love to hear if you try any of these! Leaving a comment and star rating really helps other home cooks and bakers as well!
