We are in the thick of raising children. That is exactly how I would describe us and it is lovely! There is nothing bad about it. Of course it makes it more difficult to do some things like for example GO OUT ON A DATE!
Now, I don’t want it to sound like we can never ever get out. That is just not true. Sometimes my parents will come up and we will sneak out for a dinner. And other times we will put the kids in bed and have a babysitter come over to watch the monitor while we head out for an hour or two. BUT either way, it is difficult to get out of the house for an uninterrupted date.
We have become good at creating a date at home. A nice, relaxing one that would only be better if we had a fireplace (someday). Last year I wrote a post all about our favorite kind of at home date night…Fondue! Ben and I are constantly looking to change it up a bit and try new recipes so I went on a hunt so that when this Valentine’s Day comes around, I am prepared with the ability to host our own at home date night!
All you need is a Fondue Pot to get started:) Oh and the ingredients for these 13 fondue recipes too!
Cheesy
The things that you can dip in a cheese fondue are endless but some of my favorites are carrots, broccoli, apples, and really good breads!
Buffalo Chicken Fondue from Katie’s Cucina
Craft Beer Cheese Fondue from A Night Owl
Swiss Cheese Fondue from The Hungry Housewife
Goat Cheese Fondue with Fried Sage from How Sweet It Is
The Main Course
We love to cut up raw chicken and a good steak for this course. I also chop up some mushrooms, broccoli, and potatoes!
Beef Broth Fondue from Purple House Cafe
Classic Broth Fondue from Canadian House and Home
The Melting Pot’s Mojo Broth Recipe from The Culinary Queen Bee
Coq Au Vin Fondue from Eat Drink Love
*As for dipping sauces, you can see some ideas here.
Skip Right to Dessert
Do you really need anything other than a spoon? Well, it does taste great with strawberries, graham crackers, bananas, brownies, marshmallows, I could go on forever!
