For those dinning in Valentine's Day...

What's on the menu? I wanted to make something easy, good and 'love' themed....
any ideas? i already have a recipe for passion punch. thats all i got. ps-i dont eat seafood, veggies or fruit-reason for the difficulty!

I'm making DH's favorites :
grilled ribeye steak
garlic mashed potatoes
roasted green beans
tomato & mozzarella salad.

for dessert :
individual molten chocolate lava cakes with vanilla ice cream
chocolate dipped strawberries

Susanne I am coming over!

what do you consider love themed?

what about just a really nice dinner with a v-day themed dessert?

appetizers ideas:
clams oreganata
caesar salad
crostini with sundried tomatoes
caprese salad
proscuitto wrapped breadsticks
stuffed artichoke

dinner ideas:
penne a la vodka
chicken piccata
steak diane
filet mignon
homemade pasta
chicken marsala
braciole
stuffed shells
proscuitto ravioli

i have recipes for ALL of these if you need

as for us,

I'm making spaghetti with pinot grigio and seafood (so I guess this isn't an option for you!) and some crusty bread

And for dessert, molten lava cakes with fresh whipped cream and strawberries

you know I have to make something wierd....

we went to a french carribean fusion restaurant and fell in love with this dish....

escargot in jamaican curry butter sauce soooo amazing. Of course, the ueber cooking geek that I am, I am making the curry powder myself

(and yep, that and a baguette is enough food... it's quite rich)
it will be great!
