Valentine’s Day Snacks – Easy & Fun!
Grab a heart-shaped cookie cutter and put together these easy and fun Valentine’s Day Snacks for your kids, friends, or sweetheart.
Hey Guys! Popping in super fast today to share this fun little Valentine’s Day Snack Board.
I actually created this for a client last year, but never had a chance to share it here with you, my favorite people.
Valentine’s Day Snacks are a must!
As you all know, I’m not the biggest fan of dessert or chocolates, almost always opting for a savory dish instead of sweet.
Sometimes I’ll make a special Valentine’s Day dinner of lasagna or chilean sea bass, but other years, I’ll just feel like snacking.
Whether you’re hosting a girlfriend’s V-day party or having a cozy night in with your sweetie, why not just grab a heart-shaped cookie cutter and heart-shape all the things?
As you can see, I’ve just cut up some veggies, cheese, toasted bread, salami, etc.
I also included a small dish of Lemon Herb Vinaigrette (simple recipe below!) for dipping the bread and veggies into.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
