VALENTINE'S DAY BOX - VEGETARIAN

Limited Quantity! 
Serves 2, Valentine's Day Dinner, 

This gourmet, vegetarian four-course meal starts out with a Roasted Beet Salad with Crispy Baked Goat Cheese, followed by a smooth and creamy Sunchoke Soup with Brown Butter. For the main course, our Truffled Pasta ai Funghi pairs savory mixed mushrooms with artisan campanelle pasta, lovingly bound with a rich herb-flecked sauce and infused with the heady aroma of premium truffle oil. To finish off the meal, you can’t beat a homemade molten chocolate lava cake drizzled with a simple raspberry coulis and topped with sweetened whipped cream.

The meal will take about 1 1/2 hours total.

MOLTEN CHOCOLATE LAVA CAKE KIT
Serves 2, 

This decadent dessert - a thin shell of chocolate cake encasing an oozing, warm, and rich dark chocolate center - is deceptively easy to make, relying on just a simple batter and a brief stint in a hot oven, and they can be prepared for baking far in advance. We serve ours drizzled with a simple raspberry coulis and topped with sweetened whipped cream, and include 2 4oz mason jars for baking.
