This Galentine’s season, there are two things I love: a good dinner party and the seasonal items at Trader Joe’s.
February 14th has always been about showing love to the people in my life who I appreciate the most, and in my opinion, there’s no better way to do this than dinner with your gals. Good pasta, a rom-com, and heart-shaped candy are the best remedies for a broken heart. Unfortunately, hosting this Galentine’s Day celebration can easily break the bank. Luckily for us, Trader Joe’s has a pink, heart-shaped fix.
As I was checking out at TJ’s the other day, admiring my very pink basket, I realized that Trader Joe’s had conveniently provided me with all of the necessary tools for a great night in. And what better people to share a night in with than your Galentines? So, as an avid dinner party enthusiast and Trader Joe’s frequenter, here is my expert guide to hosting Galentine’s dinner for less than 30 bucks.
My basket consisted of 5 key items:
- Heart Shaped Ricotta Cuoricini Ravioli
-
An easy comfort food to fuel your cheesy rom-com-filled night, this is the perfect main course to your meal for only $3.99.
- A Flower Centerpiece
-
Who needs someone else to buy them for you when flowers are only $9.99 per bouquet? With options ranging from tulips to roses, flowers make the perfect centerpiece for your table.
- Sparkling Cider
-
A dinner isn’t complete without a fun drink to go along with it, and for only $2.99, this is a great addition to your cart.
- Chocolate Strawberry Making kit
-
Chocolate-covered strawberries are synonymous with the holiday, and this $4 kit turns this delicious dessert into a fun activity that can make your night even sweeter.
- Raspberry Heart Cookies
-
This classic dessert is only $5.99, and the perfect end to your night. With 18 cookies in a box, celebrating with all of your friends just got easier.
Whether you’re hosting a girls night, celebrating with a partner, or just treating yourself to heart-shaped dessert, these items are the perfect way to celebrate this season of love. Happy hosting!
