It’s Friday! And that means it’s “at-home date night,” where we open a bottle of wine and cook something together (it’s always pizza on Fridays).

Whether you’re paired or flying solo, choosing one night a week to have an at-home date night can be a fun way to cook something new or something tried and true. If you need some inspiration for your date night meal, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorites below.
