When it comes to deciding on a Valentine's Day menu, you must remember that tasty doesn't have to be unhealthy and it's always possible to give a healthy twist to your partner's favourite dishes. You can always go innovative with seasonal and healthy ingredients to make your V-day dining experience healthy as well as memorable.

"This Valentine’s try something unusual which would surprise your partners. Let this not be just another weekend vacation or a usual dine out date. Instead of trying to beat the traffic on the road and wait long hours to get a table, try some DIY with food at home. Put some gentle music in the background and cook your partner’s favourite dish with a twist. Along with loads of love, add in some healthy ingredients as well with wishes for his/her good health," says Dr Meghana Pasi, Nutrition Consultant, MyThali Program, Arogya World in an interview with HT Digital.

Here are a few dishes by Dr Pasi you can try cooking which will not just make your partner happy but also keep his/her heart healthy:

1. A Burrito bowl

This is a well-balanced meal which includes carbs, beans, paneer/chicken, veggies, hung curd/coleslaw

2. Paneer or chicken wrap

Paneer/chicken adds to the proteins, the tortilla/paratha gives carbs; add some good veggies and serve the wrap with a glass of buttermilk to make it a complete balanced meal.

3. Hummus and pita with feta cheese watermelon salad

This too has all the food groups on the plate to make it a sumptuous and healthy meal.

4. Corn chaat with hung curd dip and baked pita strips:

This can become a yummy healthy snack for a quiet and romantic date with a glass of wine.

Valentine’s day cannot get over without something sweet. So, for the sweet lovers, try some of these desserts:

5. Carrot cake with wheat flour and honey

Try baking a zero-sugar cake by adding carrots, honey and of course your love.

6. Banana walnuts brownie
