Here's the deal - unless you're going out to celebrate Valentine's Day a few days early, I'll always tell you to skip the Valentine's Day pre-fixe menus! It's a wild night in the industry and you guys are about to be armed with an incredible assortment of ideas for a Valentine's Day Menu at home.
I'm all about staying in, cooking dinner together and celebrating Valentine's Day at home (preferably in pajamas)! So in an effort to help make sure everyone has an epic night, a few Valentine's Day Menu options are below!
Table of Contents
Menu #1 - if you guys are surf and turf lovers...
Menu #2 - if you're feeling a more vegetarian vibe...
Menu #3 - if you want to go the fish route...
Menu #4 - if you're obsessed with pasta...
Menu #5 and the one nearest and dearest to my heart....
And let's not forget desserts! You're for sure going to need one of these:
Dessert:
S'more Pudding Pie - one of the very best things I've ever made!
Caramel Brownies - super simple but SO addictive. Try stopping after just one.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Swirl Tart - OMG. Game changer.
or any of these Valentine's Day themed desserts over here!

Most of your recipes are for families. This is a good thing BUT many singles and couples follow as well.
When I see a 9 x 13 pan I know I need to cut it in 3rds or 4ths. I’ve see recipes that do this for you.
Is this something you could incorporate in yours? Even 1/2?

Hi Jan,
I wonder if you ever thought to make the entire recipe and instead of cooking it all , first divide it into 2 dishes, one to cook that day and another into maybe a disposable foil baking container you Can freeze to make later? I realize that you could not do this on every dish without taking all your freezer space but maybe on just the extra large recipes.

These V menu is fantastic!
My husband and I love to stay home and cook together, it doesn't matter the occasion.
Thank you Gaby!
It is going to be a challenge to pick just one of these!
Making those brownies today and hope there are some left over for Valentines!!!
Those all sound great but I cook every night. We’re going out! I will definitely make the Veg menu soon.
What a line up! Perfection!!
Which one to chose? They all look fantastic! Just bought butternut squash noodles. Can't wait to try them.
This makes me really look forward to Valentine's Day!!
What a spectacular V-day menu!
YUM!!! We are totally staying home- Thomas is super lucky to be getting one of these amazing dinners!
