The month of lovers has arrived … the month in which many of us celebrate February 14 in a special way!
Although on Valentine’s Day there are many options for dining out, it is very interesting to make a special menu at home, tasty and that makes this day even more special. Especially for those who like to escape the confusion, a special and romantic dinner at home allows us to be in our haven, much more at ease than in the crowd.
If you want to do things differently this year and avoid confusion and overly inflated restaurant prices, nutritionist Maria Gama, from the blog, put yourself on the Line, the perfect menu for Valentine’s Day which, besides being quite tasty, is also very healthy.
Whether to surprise your boyfriend or even to cook together, with this menu you can still celebrate with a special meal, without spoiling the efforts you have made at the level of training. Another good tip to make this Valentine’s Day even more fit is to take advantage of the healthy wave of Maria Gama’s menu and offer feminine or gym clothes male to your better half. So, in addition to training in style, they will always remember each other even in the gym!
