Romantic Valentine’s Day Dinner for Two – a dinner menu for two! Perfect for Valentine’s Day (or any date night)! (Gluten-Free, Grain-Free, Dairy-Free)
The post is sponsored by Williams Sonoma®, but the opinions are my own.
If you are looking for Valentine’s Day inspiration, look no further!
I don’t know about you guys, but most years my husband and I stay in for Valentine’s Day. Before we had kids we would go out some times, but you kind of feel like you are on a date with the entire world … and now that we have kids- forget it. We are always home for Valentine’s Day now :). BUT that doesn’t mean we need to skip Valentine’s Day dinner altogether!
So I am so excited to be partnering with Williams Sonoma to help inspire your date-night-in dinner-for-two! I have 3 grazing boards for you to choose from, mix and match or make all 3! Plus a super simple champagne spritzer 🙂
Okay, the first thing you are going to need are some amazing cheese boards – here are the 3 I am using!:
LOVE Cheese Board
Scalloped Cheese Board
Long Marble-Wooden Cheese Board
I love them all and can’t even pick my favorite!!!
Also, did you guys know that Williams Sonoma sells food?! Because they do. You can literally order your entire Valentine’s Day charcuterie board if you want! It’s so awesome. I don’t know about you guys, but life gets a little crazy – so if you want someone else to take care of the meat-side of your meal, I highly recommend going through them!
Here is what I used on my board:
This is the European Charcuterie Set.
This is the Olli Salumeria Assorted Salami Mix.
So here is the Menu for the night!!!
First, a simple little cocktail – a Champagne-Kombucha Spritzer (I love these Valentine’s Day Double Old-Fashioned Glasses!)
Second, we have a veggie platter:
Third, a seafood platter:
And finally, the charcuterie board!
