Delightful, One-Pan Dinner Options for Your Valentine’s Day

By Mia Leimkuhler, The New York Times

I’m particularly pleased to be with you today, this Tuesday before Valentine’s Day (which you very much were aware of and didn’t remember only just now). Last year, I encouraged you to make some quick, but still special, pastas, and I stand by those options.

This year, I’m going to give you five delicious dinner options that can be made using only one pan or pot. Taking the time to plan, gather your ingredients and cook a Valentine’s Day dinner for your special person or people is such a lovely gesture. Leaving whoever’s on cleanup duty a sink full of pots and pans, however, is not so lovely. Though maybe you’ve offered to cook dinner and do the dishes, in which case you deserve some ease and efficiency for your generosity (not to mention flowers).
