Valentine's Dinner - Cheap, Easy, and guaranteed to get you...

[nomoney]

... a kiss and a hug.

So I have decided to cook dinner for my girlie and finally figured out whats on the menu.

Chicken fetuccini alfredo
-the premade stuff in the plastic container -$4
-fetuccini noodles -$1
-bake boneless skinless breasts and slice -$3
then place on top of pasta and sauce
with a grind of pepper

Cesar salad
-the kit in the bag -$3
-Tomato for effect -$1

Sourdough rolls w/butter
-premade, reheat in oven -$2

Dessert
-Chocolate Entemann's(sp?) Cake -$3
-Cherry pie filling -$1
-Whipped Cream (good to have around anyway) -$2

Totally simple and only $20 + $4 trader joe's wine
Throw in some candles and a little music and maybe a movie after and you should get to finish the leftover whipped cream in a creative way.

Comments, tips, etc. welcome...

i'm not sure, but i think that by definition, a cesar salad doesn't have tomatoes.

Oh .. hehhe... didnt think about that. Oh well, they are going in there anyway.

Go for the "Two Buck Chuck" for the wine. It is really good and only costs a $1.99. The real name is "Charles Shaw". It was a featured news story on CNN because of the cult following that has developed. Also available at Trader Joe's.

if you spend extra on the wine....and it tastes extra good..
then she'll drink more than one glass......
