When planning this year’s Valentine’s Day dinner with your sweetheart, do not forget your local Kroger.

For a dining-at-home option, Kroger is offering a complete Italian-inspired night-in meal package for under $35, including wine and a dessert.

“Providing customers with affordable dine-in dinner options for Valentine’s Day helps ensure everyone can celebrate the holiday and enjoy a delicious meal with a loved one,” James Menees, corporate affairs manager with Kroger Mid-Atlantic, said. “Our Italian-inspired meal package, which includes a recipe for a delicious pasta sauce, makes it easy for shoppers to cook a memorable dinner at home.”

Kroger’s package includes a special recipe crafted by Our Brands Chef Mike Florea, featuring a spicy marinara served over Private Selection rigatoni. The complete meal includes:

  • Pinetti Notte Primitivo, a zinfandel with tasting notes of bright cherry and blackberry and hints of white pepper
  • A salad course featuring Kroger’s fresh Bacon Caesar Chopped Salad Kit
  • Chef Florea’s spicy marinara served over Private Selection pasta
  • And dessert: fresh chocolate-dipped strawberries from the deli
