Valentine Roll-Ups
You'll need: Strawberry flavored cream cheese, strawberry jam and tortilla shells (soft and I use the small 8" ones, but you can use any size).  Spread cream cheese and jam on a tortilla.  Roll the tortilla into a log and cut into 1 inch thick slices and serve.  -- Member Smilingangel

 

Romantic Meal Idea #3:  Ski Lodge
Setting the Scene:   Snuggle up on a warm, fluffy blanket while you watch the snowflakes drift to the ground.
Menu:  Comfort foods like Beef Stew or Chili paired with hot, homemade crusty bread is sure to add to the cozy vibe. Finish it off with a warm nightcap such as hot buttered rum, Mulled Wine or Hot Cider
