“Cooking is at once child’s play and adult joy. And cooking done with care is an act of love.” —Craig Claiborne
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and we’re feeling the love! So much so that we’ve put together the perfect plant-based date-night-in three course meal for anyone in the mood to skip the reservations and make something homemade instead.
Swich's made with love Valentine's Day dinner menu
Appetizer: Asian Kale, Coconut & Cashew Salad
First impressions are always important; your first course sets the tone for the rest of your meal. Our Asian Kale, Coconut & Cashew Salad is a sure winner. The flavor profiles are fresh and aromatic, and feature flavor favorites (say that three times 😉): kale, cabbage, mint, cilantro, chives, toasted cashews, and coconut flakes. A simple Asian vinaigrette brings it all together.

Main Course: Cauliflower 'Steak' with Olive Pistou
The most popular Valentine's Day dinners typically feature steak, and we’ll go that route too—with a plant-based spin. Crisp, yet tender, cauliflower ‘steaks’ are the showstopper in this dish, served with a flavorful and bright olive pistou, made with green olives, orange segments, golden raisins, and extra virgin olive oil.

Dessert: Chocolate Ganache Cake | Dairy, Egg & Soy-Free
We know that chocolate and Valentine's have a storied history, so we can’t finish the meal off in any other way than with a heavenly chocolate cake! This rich and moist cake is topped with a lick-the-spoon-good ganache. Did we mention that it also incorporates coffee to further enhance the cocoa?! Trust us on this one. Bonus: it's dairy, egg, and soy-free.
