Valentines Day is here again and it’s a great time to indulge our loved ones in some decadent food. Here are four delicious and easy menus to consider when planning your special lunch or dinner.

Four Easy Menus

Casual Korean with Maangchi

Take the casual approach with a Soju Watermelon Cocktail (you can also use Vodka) served with an all time favourite, Crunchy Korean Fried Chicken. Top it off with a beautiful gift of sweet Chapssaltteok (Korean style mochi).

80’s Retro Romance with Foodwishes

Make a bold move with this retro combo. The always popular classic Steak Dianne is followed by super indulgent Chocolate Decadence. So good.

Little Effort Big Impact with Laura in the Kitchen

Are you really lazy or pressed for time? This is the menu for you. But don’t let the simplicity of this menu fool you. There’s a ton of flavour in the sweet and spicy Honey Mustard Salmon and an eruption of gooey goodness in the Salted Caramel Molten Lava Cake.

Healthy Vegetarian Lunch with Gordon Ramsay

Light and bursting with flavour this menu is perfect for a lunchtime date. Gorgeous crispy Halloumi Courgette and Herb Cakes served alongside a delicate Tomato and Watercress Salad (use rocket if you can’t find watercress). For dessert serve this gorgeous Griddled Pineapple with Spiced Caramel.

Jamie Oliver‘s Valentine Mega Mix

Also take a look at Jamie Oliver’s Valentine Mega Mix. Loads of great ideas including a vegan chocolate pot, cocktails, seafood and pasta dishes. Russell Brand even makes an appearance.

Treats to Make With The Kids

Valentines Day is a great time to get the kids into the kitchen and allow some indulgence. Here are some fun ideas that kids will love.

Joy of Baking

Peanut butter treats are always a hit so here are two easy and yummy recipes from Joy of Baking. Peanut Butter Marshmallow Bars and Peanut Butter Rice Krispies.
