Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to cook something special, whether you’re celebrating with a partner, friends, or simply treating yourself. Keep reading to design the perfect menu for the occasion, full of tried-and-true Jow recipes, for an approachable yet sophisticated meal to show your love.
Appetizers
Kick off your meal and set the tone right with an easy, elegant starter. Use Jow to order everything you need for a French Charcuterie Board with cheese and meats, or for a platter of Smoked Salmon & Cream Cheese Crostini with fresh chives. If you prefer something warm, go for Creamy Butternut Squash Soup, which comes together in minutes.
Main Dishes
Pick a main dish from Jow that’s big on flavor, but simple to prepare. Steak with Balsamic Brussels & Mashed Potatoes is a Jow fan-favorite, with user Astrid K. commenting that this recipe is “so easy but felt luxurious.” For pasta fans, Cherry Tomato & Chicken Pasta is the way to go, with a simple tomato sauce, tender chicken, and lots of fresh basil. To experience a restaurant-quality dish at home, try Roasted Lamb Chops with Chimichurri. The bright, herby chimichurri balances out the rich lamb chops, and steamy wild rice is the perfect accompaniment.
Desserts
Don’t forget to end your meal with something sweet! Choose from Jow’s silky Chocolate-Orange Mousse, caramelized Butterscotch Blondies, or nostalgic Chocolate Pudding Pie. Each of these desserts can be prepped ahead of time, so you can enjoy the evening stress-free.
