Title: Valentine Appetizer Idea?
Post by: deestafford on February 10, 2014, 10:07:24 PM: For valentine supper for my wife and oldest daughter I'm thinking about surf and turf. Steak and shrimp for the wife. Steak and king crab legs for the daughter. Side most likely asparagus (they like that green stuff--must be a female thing). I've not got a brainstorm, maybe more like a drizzle, on what would be a good appetizer. Y'all got any ideas?

Thanks, Dee

Still have not decided on the appetizer yet.

Now that they sell those bacon cup cookers maybe you could get a heart shaped small pan and turn it upside down and do the same thing.
