Valentine’s Day Dishes and Drinks
Welcome to Day 3 of 14 Days of Valentines! Today, it’s all about the food we eat and the drinks we drink. Desserts will be in their own post and I’ll also feature Kid Friendly desserts next week. We don’t really prepare anything special for Valentine’s Day (as we tend to treat it like any other day of the year), but you could also use these recipes for anytime of the year. Or you could do a red themed dinner night for a party- really, just use your imagination and don’t limit yourself! You could also do a few of these for a 4th of July celebration.
Valentine’s Day Dishes and Drinks
Start off your day with this delicious Strawberry Raisin French Toast from Mom vs. Boys
Feeling thirsty? Have some Valentine’s Day Punch from Thrifty Jinxy
Or for a hot beverage, try this delicious Mulled Cranberry Tea from The Kitchen is My Playground
Perhaps you’d like to sample this Copy Cat Sonic Cherry Limeade from CincyShopper
For a more adult beverage, why not give the Ruby Slipper Springtini from Snappy Gourmet a try
Or maybe this tasty Cherry Smash Cocktail from Hello Little Home
Want an option? You can leave the vodka out (or put it in) to this delicious Watermelon Lemonade Slushy from A Cedar Spoon
Need something to munch on? Try this Bruschetta with Tomatoes and Ricotta from Hello Little Home
Or you can warm up with a bowl of Creamy Tomato Basil Soup from Hello Little Home
I don’t know about you, but I absolutely love cheese and would love to try this Roasted Tomato and Whipped Goat Cheese Spread from A Cedar Spoon
And this Slow Cooker Chicken Tortilla Soup from A Cedar Spoon sounds so good!
Or you can give this delicious Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup from Food Done Light a try
If you’re spending Valentine’s Day at home, be sure to try a few of these recipes for a tasty Valentine’s day or try them any day of the year. Other suggestions for a red themed food? Salsa, strawberries, cranberries, red peppers, radishes, or beets. Next time I’m over there, I’ll have to ask my mom for her buttered baked beets recipe. I’m not usually a huge fan of beets but those are melt in your mouth delicious. Maybe it’s the butter..
Do you have special dinner plans for Valentine’s Day? If so, what do you typically do?

Sounds like some great suggestions. I can’t wait to try the Valentines Day Punch. Thank you for sharing
Chicken tortilla soup is one of my favorite meals ever, but mister hates anything stew or soup. I need to make this recipe just for myself. Thanks for sharing!
Very nice – the way your post brings us an idea and a link to find more for each moment of our day – I love Goat’s cheese so will go there! 🙂
