Breakfast for Dinner
Not a morning person? No problem! With a Breakfast for Dinner theme, you can catch up on all the richness of what breakfast food has to offer. Think butter, cream, and eggs, with plenty of pancakes, waffles, muffins, and other baked goodies to go around. For protein, go for bacon and sausages!

Desserts Only
For something decadent, try a Desserts Only kind of night. Now your sweet-toothed friends will have all the reasons to dive right in those cakes, brownies, and cookies. To make it even more interesting, you can put a twist and present faux desserts such as chocolate pasta, rice pudding, spaghetti sundaes, and more!
Board Game Night
If you want to avoid cooking, or would like the convenience of ordering take out, Board Game night is the perfect companion to pizzas and burgers. The after-party cleanup will also be faster and hassle-free since you won’t have any pots or pans to wash up after. You can go down the classic route with a round of Monopoly or try your hand at more psychological fares such as The Resistance.
Vegan Party
Don’t worry. There’s more to vegan food than greens and salads. Surprise your friends with tofu pizza, sweet potato fries, kale chips, vegetable dips, baked potato skins, and more! You’d be surprised at how creative, colorful, and delicious vegan recipes can actually get.
What are your plans this Valentine’s Day? Share them with us. We’d love to hear from you!
