Who says Valentine's Day is just for couples?  It's a day to express and receive love no matter what your age or what your social framework may be.  Did you know the name day named after St. Valentine, a Christian martyr way back in 496 AD.  The romance around the day blossomed at the time of Geoffrey Chaucer in the Middle Ages.  Marked by flowers, heart-shaped greeting cards and chocolates, the February 14th holiday is a time for all of us to think love!

One way to enjoy the day is to serve special recipes that evoke romance.  Arrange a romantic dinner for your family or your partner.  How about inviting a few friends asking them each to bring an elegant dish to help commemorate the day?  For starters, try these... all guarenteed to bring a smile to anyone's face.
