Date Night – Dinner for Two
Are you looking for date night ideas in quarantine? Here is a date night dinner idea that your man will surely enjoy!
Whether you are a single mom or married couple, date night’s seem to be few and far in between. I enjoy hearing couples who make date nights a priority in their relationship and ensure to have regular scheduled date nights. Having that time for just the two of you is so important. With being a single mom, having my kids fulltime and in a long distance relationship date nights are a rare occurrence but it makes me appreciate them more.
Last Friday was the first date night we have had in months, with the quarantine we obviously had to stay in. I wanted to make us a fancy delicious dinner to feel as if we were out on the town!
I decided on steak, roasted potatoes, and fresh green beans because what man doesn’t like steak and potatoes?!? It is embarrassing to say, this was the first steak I have ever cooked! I was crossing my fingers it would turn out. Luckily Dustin got out of work early helping me out so it wasn’t a complete failure 🙂
We paired with a glass of wine and brownies for dessert. Hope you enjoy!
