What if you showed love to your sweetie ALL day on Valentine’s … through food? We’re talking breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and dessert! Before you think cupid struck me and I lost it, you don’t have to make fancy crepes or complicated compotes! But I think we can have a little (or a lot) of fun, putting together a whole entire day of fun meals to show your love!
I’m sharing a few ideas below so you can mix and match and create a healthy Valentine’s meal plan that works for you!
This is part of the 28 Day Challenge to Fill Your Home with Love! If you haven’t joined the challenge & my email list, you can do it here:
Today we’re on Day 9 of the Challenge: Share a healthy Valentine’s Day meal (or meals) with your love!
It’s great if you can get away to a romantic restaurant with your honey to celebrate Valentine’s Day. But you can also make it a special holiday by adding sweet, simple loving touches to one or more meals!
You can even create your own meal plan for a special Valentine’s Day by mixing and matching any of these ideas!
Valentine’s Breakfast ideas
- My yummy #Whole30 Egg Muffins (with video!)
- Heart-shaped pancakes (or just place blueberries in a heart-shaped on a regular pancake!)
- Make them whole wheat pancakes to make them a little healthier!
- Strawberry banana smoothie (extra love points if you serve it with a cute straw!)
- We love making smoothies in our Nutribullet!
Valentine’s Lunch ideas
- Grab a heart-shaped pizza and have it delivered (or bring it yourself!)
- Ok, that’s not super healthy, but maybe just order it with extra veggies? lol!
- Share a caprese salad (mozzarella & tomatoes are always a win!)
- Make your honey’s “favorite” sandwich and cut the bread in a heart-shape. Cookie cutters work great for this! (But I’ll admit that this might be kind of silly! Haha!)
Valentine’s Dinner ideas
- This one’s easy: make your honey’s favorite meal! (Good luck if it’s lobster!)
- Pick a theme! For us, it would be fun to do a puertorrican theme and share “arroz con pollo”, “tostones” y “tembleque” (que rico!)
- I don’t know about you, but Valentine’s and Italian food for me just go together. Feel free to go the pasta route and maybe share a Lady & the Tramp spaghetti and meatballs romantic moment! Feel free to play “Bella Notte” on Spotify and maybe light some candles for extra effect.
Valentine’s Snack ideas
- Um did I say “healthy”? We can sneak in a little bit of Valentine’s chocolate and candy, just don’t go overboard. 😉
- Go red for love! Share a bowl of strawberries & raspberries … maybe with a little whipped cream?
- Top your favorite yogurt or even chia pudding (yay healthy!) with your favorite berries & nuts.
