6 recipes for a romantic at home Valentine's Day

I love Valentine's Day, but I also don't love overpriced rushed meals. Unfortunately when you dine out on the biggest date night of the year (I just made up that fact but it sounds believable) that's what you're usually facing. This year the boyfriend and I are opting to cook dinner at home and just enjoy a relaxing evening together. Call me biased, but I think this is 100% the play for Valentine's Day. I'm making shrimp stir fry Wednesday night, but today I rounded up 6 recipes for a romantic at home Valentine's Day.

1. Lobster Mac and Cheese - the only thing better than mac and cheese is lobster mac and cheese

2. Heart Shaped Pizza - you don't need a fancy meal; sometimes simple is best 

3. Grilled Pork with Dark Cherry Sauce - but sometimes fancy is nice and this sounds fancy

4. Goat Cheese Sweet Potato Rounds - this looks like the perfect side dish for your famous steak

5. Mint Chimichurri Lamb Chops - whenever I think of lamb I think of the scene in How to Lose a Guy in 10 days when she pretends to be a vegetarian 

6. Strawberry Champagne Cupcakes - because what's Valentine's Day without dessert 

What are your plans for Valentine's Day? Anyone else planning a romantic night at home?
