Last-Minute Valentine’s Day Dinner Ideas

This Valentine’s Day, skip the dinner reservations and prepare a lovely meal for your significant other in the comfort of your own home! Instead of scrambling to make a reservation at a fancy restaurant, go to the grocery, get a few ingredients, and whip up a great last-minute meal. It may appear boring and simple, but the truth is that you can make it as romantic as you like! You can still get dressed up, light candles, and eat on a tablecloth to create a romantic night. Check out some of the delicious dinner menu ideas we put together for Valentine’s Day!

Lobster Risotto

It’s better to keep things simple, especially on Valentine’s Day. You want to spend the majority of your evening with your partner, not in the kitchen worrying about what’s cooking. First off, a lobster risotto! It’s actually quite simple. Lobster risotto is one of my favourite dishes of all time; it’s creamy and delicious, and it’s a lot easier to make than most people assume. What’s the secret? Look for lobster tails in the fresh seafood area of your supermarket!

Oven-Baked Chicken Parmesan

Next up, you could also try cooking an oven-baked chicken parmesan recipe that doesn’t involve any frying. This chicken parmesan is healthier, quick, and easy to make because it is baked! You might think of chicken parmesan as a time-consuming and difficult recipe, but it’s actually rather simple to throw together at the last minute and still have a delicious meal.

Lasagna for Two

This Valentine’s Day, are you looking for a nice and romantic night? What could be better than coming home to the yummy smell of a delicious Italian meal on a cold February night? Even better, the dish is a rich, delicious lasagna that takes a quick 45 minutes to bake and takes little effort to prepare. You can also serve it with a side of garlic bread at the end!

Classic Sirloin Steak

For a romantic meal for two, nothing beats a classic steak. It is considered one of the quickest ways to get dinner on the table.  It’s fast and easy to cook this great meal with a side of creamy mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables, plus it is also budget-friendly!  When the dinner is ready to be served, a glass of sparkling wine or juice would top it off!

Homemade Pizza

There’s nothing more romantic than pizza.  Making a fresh pizza at home for Valentine’s Day is a terrific way to surprise your partner, or just as a fun way to spend time with them while preparing your dinner! You can make your own dough from scratch or buy pizza dough balls in most grocery stores. All you need now is a sauce and some of your favourite ingredients! You can also have more fun by making a heart shape out of the dough and who doesn’t enjoy a little cheesiness?
