If the way to someone's heart is through his or her stomach, these made-with-love foods cut right to the chase. Sweet Valentine’s Day breakfast ideas like pancakes and bacon, romantic dinner recipes including appetizers and mains and swoon-worthy desserts—we’ve got everything you need to set your valentine’s heart aflutter.

Start your Valentine's Day off the right way with your sweetie's other true love: bacon. Fold strips into hearts on a baking sheet (inset with a rack if you have one) and bake at 400 degrees F until crisp.

No matter how you choose to celebrate, this adorable lasagna is a must! It takes a bit of time to pull off but it’s not difficult to assemble as long as you have a heart-shaped Bundt pan. Pair it with a bottle of red and a good movie for a cozy date night—or serve it as a pasta course as part of a larger Valentine’s Day menu. Either way, you’re sure to fall in love.

These heart-shaped hotcakes take breakfast in bed to a new level. Think of a squeeze bottle filled with batter as your kitchen paintbrush: Squirt a heart outline on a hot griddle, let it start to set, and then flood it with more batter for charming less-than-perfect hotcakes.
