I’ve never been one to become swept up in the craziness of getting dolled up and going out to an incredibly expensive meal with a million other couples on Valentine’s Day. Making a nice meal at home and snuggling up to watch a romantic movie together with a glass or two of wine is my preferred way to spend the evening. Even better if we make time to sneak off for a couples massage or mani/pedi earlier in the day or even the day before.

All Three

This year due to my recent obsession with FAGE Total 5% Greek yogurt, I decided to add on to our non-traditional tradition. Instead of indulging in our usual chocolates or sweets, I created some tasty yogurt bowl pairings inspired by my three favorite romantic movies of all time so we could enjoy a guilt-free dessert this Valentine’s Day.

Movie: The Notebook | Toppings: Maple, Pecan and Apple

I mean the story itself is just one big AWWWWW, but let’s admit, it’s Ryan Gosling that makes this movie never get old. Their forbidden southern love has me thinking of the traditional pies of the south inspiring this delicious pairing of FAGE Total 5% Greek yogurt topped with Maple, Pecan and Apple.

Movie: When Harry Met Sally | Toppings: Granola, Apples and Fresh Cinnamon

When Harry Met Sally 1

Can men and women truly be just friends? Every time I watch this flick, I end up picking a different side. They both make good points and sometimes I agree with Harry and sometimes it’s Sally. Regardless, this is one of my favorite feel good movies because no matter how many times I’ve seen it, it always evokes hearty laughs while pulling at my heartstrings with the sweet old couple cut-aways…..awwwwwww!! Inspired by Sally’s infamous Apple Pie order, this a la mode bowl has granola, apples and fresh cinnamon in an “upside-down” presentation by adding the FAGE Total 5% Greek yogurt on top with a large ice cream scoop.

Movie: Pride and Prejudice | Toppings: Lavender, Honey, Lemon and Blueberries

When I’m feeling overwhelmed by life, I love getting lost in this ultimate classic love story set in a simpler time. I fall in love with the English country gardens filled with lavender and can almost smell its sweet fragrance. So my Pride and Prejudice inspired FAGE Total 5% Greek yogurt bowl features lavender, honey, lemon and blueberries. As a side note, remember to use only organically grown herbs when cooking with lavender (or those purchased specifically for cooking from a reputable market or health food store).
