Date Night Recipes

I love going on dates. Whether it's trying fun new activities, seeing the latest movie, exploring a little town, and especially eating. However, when you're going out regularly it can get tough to find the money to consistently eat out. So what's a couple to do? Cook together!

Since I am absolutely, positively, NOT an expert in the kitchen I rely on simple recipes and blogs with clear instructions to figure out what to do. Today I am going to share with you some recipes that Joe and I have recently made with relative success.

3 Ingredient Orange Chicken

The less ingredients the better, as far as I'm concerned. Keeping it simple is ideal and we absolutely loved this orange chicken recipe! If you're looking for something easy and filling, this is the one for you.

Apple Strudel 

We both have a massive sweet tooth so baking is an ideal date night activity. We decided to take on making apple strudel, inspired by a scene in Inglorious Bastards, and it was quite the experience. If you want to take on this project be prepared for many hours of waiting and many laughs as you attempt to roll it just right.

Admittedly this is not a recipe that we've tried yet, but it's on the list! With a quick cook time and a yummy result, this is one that I'd love to give a go next. Check out the details here! 

Pinterest wish list

I also have a Pinterest board dedicated to recipes I'd love to make (and you'll notice most of those are dessert...) so if you want some more options, head over there.

What sort of recipes are you into? What's been your best one? Always looking for more ideas :)
