Sure, these recipes need some work but the results will be well worth the effort!

Lunch:

Here’s a fun idea for something sweet and savory for Valentine’s Day lunch- gluten free apple pecan bacon chicken. So many textures and different flavors; one bite of this recipe and you’re going to fall in love. Want something soothing and comforting? Whip up a batch of gluten free chicken and dumpling stew and serve it with freshly baked gluten free biscuits. Toss some veggies in for added flavor, and you have yourself a wholesome, hearty and complete Valentine’s lunch! And as a special Valentine’s dessert, make some gluten-free linzer cookies with strawberry filling. Cut the cookie dough into little hearts to make your partner swoon.

Dinner:

Sinful, deep-fried goodness- gluten free chicken fried steak. They say the way to a man’s heart is through his tummy. And if chicken fried steak is what you’re making him for Valentine’s dinner, there’s no doubt that you’ll create a permanent place for yourself in his heart! Some homemade gluten free wonton soup might just be what you need to complete the meal. Toss a quick green salad with some cool, refreshing salad dressing and you’re going to singing a happy tune! Finish the meal with some simple, yet decadent gluten free angel food cake cupcakes. What a great meal!
