The Ultimate Family-Friendly Valentine’s Day Dinner

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Hey friend, happy Hump Day! Real talk here: What is the likelihood of finding a babysitter on Valentine’s day? I’d say about as high as the likelihood of my children letting me sleep past 6 on a Saturday. It ain’t happening!
As a result, we  have learned to embrace Valentine’s Day as a family holiday. Valentine’s to us is an opportunity to share our love for one another as a family.
Below is a family friendly recipe you can make with the kiddos, and a super fun dessert that is always a huge hit in our house. (Full disclosure, it is basically me taking these heart shaped cookie cutters to a regular dinner!)

Dinner: Sheet Pan Chicken with roasted heart shaped root vegetables, and heart shaped garden salad.

I hope this takes some of the guess work out of your Valentines Day!

Be Bold! Xo,

Betsy
