making a healthy but romantic dinner for two?

Question

any suggestions for making a healthy but romantic dinner for two people?

Answer 1

Start with a nice spinach or arugula salad...with just oil and vinegar or a lite dressing.

A nice bowl of pasta with a fresh tomato sauce is always nice.
Or grilled fish or chicken is perfect, sided with some roasted asparagus or broccoli!

If you want to do dessert, just do a bowl of fresh berries or melon...very refreshing and not too heavy!

Oh, and a bottle of red wine and some candles, of course!!

Answer 2

1 inch thick tuna steak (fresh if you can get it) marinade in a good Italian dressing. Roll in Sesame seed and cook in covered dish until the meat is light pink. Remove the cover and brown lightly...Do not cook too much it will get dry, even with the marinade. Garnish with shaved carrots and radish for color.
Serve with dark green vegetable (broccoli, asparagus spears, & etc.) and a small fruit and spinach salad with rasperry vinegarette dressing.
For desert, you can serve mellon balls or sherbet. Always top off a seafood dinner with a nice dinner wine to your preference (wineries have taste testing so you can make sure you like the one you have).

Answer 3

Well, i have never really made anything totally healthy for my BF before, so i think you could make some steak on a grill(steak is high in iron and fire grilling eliminates the need for any greasy lubricants if frying). and you could make baked potatoes ( avoid putting salt an butter, we already consume way too much salt and butter is kind of fattening)
if you are veg. then i dont really know what to say except that i hope i didnt just insult you! :)

Good Luck!!!

Grilled Raspberry Chicken

Serve with steamed asparagus and roasted potatoes.

Answer 5

just keep everything in small portions and light. salad, entree with a small portion of meat and veggies (like a veggie mix or homemade mashed potatoes is ok); a good dessert might be a homemade fruit salad. you can also see what your date prefers and work around that. pumpernickel or rye bread on the side would be a nice touch. enjoy!
