Healthy Valentine’s Day Food Ideas

It often feels like the time between Halloween and Valentine’s day is just one big extended chocolate and candy holiday. And, of course, you know that Easter is just around the corner! My kids definitely have their share of the sweet stuff {as do I!}, but I do try to balance it out with some healthy food options as well. Valentine’s Day has got to be one of the easiest holidays to create fun but healthy holiday food. You can pretty much cut anything into a heart shape or make it pink or red and you’re good to go!


Lots of fun and healthy Valentine's Day food ideas!
Kids are all about fun, so try some of these healthy {or at least healthier!} Valentine’s Day food ideas and see if your kids even notice that they are missing out on the junk food!

Valentine’s Day Breakfast Ideas

Start the day off with a fun Valentine’s Day breakfast to show your family some love!  It really doesn’t have to take much extra time. If you’re too rushed on a weekday, you can always do a Valentine’s Day breakfast the weekend before {or after!} or just have breakfast for dinner. Any time is a good time to show your family you love them!

Healthy Valentine’s Day Drinks

If you’re looking for healthy Valentine’s Day drink ideas, try some fruit infused water using strawberries, or raspberries.  It’s super easy to make and has very little sugar.  Or add some cute heart shaped ice cubes with some frozen red fruit.  Smoothies are another easy drink idea – just use strawberries or other berry combo to bring out the pink/red colors.  You can even throw some spinach leaves in there without them even noticing!

    Your strawberry mango smoothie looks really good. Strawberry is my go to for shakes, etc. The Greek yogurt banana split with heart shaped strawberries looks cute. I would definitely make this. My oldest daughter loves when I make shapes out of her sandwiches for her school lunches. It makes it a little more fun.
