CRAB and PARMESAN STUFFED BABY BELLA

This week I will be posting menu ideas to help you plan for the most romantic day of the year; February 14th 2016, St. Valentine’s Day.
 
I will share some of my intimate recipes for two; yes, no children allowed. If you have children, find yourself a baby sitter or call 1-800-Grandma to take care of your most precious creation.
 
You owe it to both of you. Just one day-a-year out of your crazy daily routine that leaves you with no time to celebrate how much you love each other. Do it!
