3 easy recipes for Valentine’s Day, including warm tomato goat cheese dip, white wine sauteed beef with rosemary, and strawberry pound cake dessert shooters!

I had a great time sharing easy recipes for Valentine’s Day with Sherman Live! 

The theme was a Valentine’s meal to make together at home to celebrate Valentine’s Day with your special someone.  You know, if you can’t get a sitter, or your finances dictate that you keep it low-key this year.

So, I shared 3 of my favorite easy recipes for Valentine’s Day with everyone.

For starters, we made a vegetarian spicy tomato and goat cheese dip that comes together in about a minute.  Something a little spicy to get the meal started.

Next, we made white wine sauteed beef.  Serve this with a little spinach and goat cheese risotto or loaded cauliflower gratin and you have a restaurant quality meal.

Made with my NuWave Induction Cooktop!!

We ended on a sweet note with simple dessert shooters.  Take the hassle out of dessert!

Best Boy and Co Dessert Sauce. Only the BEST dessert sauce EVER!

No one can say no to these small portions.  You more than make up in flavor what you lose in portion size with fresh strawberries, whipped cream pound cake, and Best Boy and Co hot fudge.

I paired my desserts with two of my favorite Indiana Wines: Signature Traminette from local favorite Mallow Run Winery and Crema Dolce from French Lick Winery.

Signature Traminette Wine, from Mallow Run Winery

Signature,similar to Moscato, Traminette is bubbly, fresh, and full of fruit. Bubbles laced with aromas of pear and rose petals tickle your nose before each sip. Try with shellfish or with fresh Indiana strawberries!

Crema Dolce is a sweet, creamy Olorosa style wine.  The rich velvety flavor has caramel, nutty undertones creating a decadent dessert wine that is sinfully satisfying.

I hope you enjoy these easy recipes for Valentine’s Day!
