As Valentine’s Day approaches, it’s a chance for many couples to reaffirm their love and commitment to each other. However, because it’s Valentine’s Day, it’s often incredibly tough for couples to dine out at a restaurant and equally expensive. As if that wasn’t enough, the chances are the restaurant is bound to be crowded and rushed as the waiters and staff try to make the most of the day. Thus, the best option, for many, does tend to be a nice home-cooked dinner, although the question does remain, what to make?
