It’s finally happening you have a date for the first time inmonths and that cutie’s Tinder profile definitely screams bae-worthy.

This one’s worth pulling all the stops for, so what better way to make a good first impression than with a homemade meal? Made with love and cooked from the heart, these delicious meals help you avoid that awkward first date.

If you’re lucky, it’ll be the extra push that’ll make it go from a good night to agreatnight, if you catch my drift.

Skirt Steak with Chimichurri Sauce

Daniel Schuleman

Going out to a nice steakhouse seems like a good ideauntil the check arrives andyou’rethe one that’s forced to pick it up because your ideal date sure isn’t going to. Avoid that moment and make your owndelicious skirt steak, which is topped with a spicychimichurri sauce.


Pasta with White Wine and Porcini Mushroom Sauce

Michelle Loret de Mola

Nothing says date night like some old-fashioned pasta, and with this rich, shallot-infused sauce, you two will always have something to talk about. No more awkward silences, unless it’s because you’re too busy eating your food as fast as you can.


Creamy Spinach and Mushroom Risotto

Vedika Luthra

Risotto seems like a difficult culinary task, but this recipe breaks it down and makes it simple, which means you can totally brag about how you know how to make complicated Italian dishes. They’ll fall head over heels.


Chicken Piccata

Kelda Baljon

Thispiccata is sprinkled with fresh lemon juice and some capers, which lend just the right amount of saltiness to season the whole plate. Let’s just hope that your date isn’t salty about theirlast break-up.


Pumpkin Ravioli with Brown Butter Sauce

Becca Miller

Don’t be that person who eats off of your date’s plate because you don’t like what you ordered. This pumpkin ravioli is smothered in a brown butter sauce that’s as rich and luscious as you want them to believe you areand is good enough for you to eat your own plate of it.


Butternut Squash Macaroni and Cheese

Parisa Soraya

Forget aboutthe cheesy pickup lines with this special macaroni and cheese, which fuses together rosemary and butternut squash for a warm, comforting meal. It’ll still taste good when you actually sit down and eat after secretlyhaving half the pan by yourself beforehand.


Cheese Fondue

Ishaan Pathak

Have youseen the prices at fondue restaurants? Make your own melted cheeseat home instead, and you won’t have to let out an awkward squeal when you realize the bill is more expensive than the amount of money you have in your bank account.


Coconut and Quinoa Black Bean Stew

Keah Hansen

There are days that are perfect for eating spicy stews, but your first date isn’t one of them. You’ll likely end up spending more time on the toilet than in front of your #baegoals, so make this mealinstead. It’s just as filling as your fiery favorite, but less spicy.


Duck Breast Salad with White Wine Sauce

Chris Roman

Don’t worry, there’s not enough wine in the sauce to make you drunk enough to text your ex. We added just the right amount to provide a balance to the sweet pearsand the palate-heavy meat, making this mealan absolute winner.


Braised Short Ribs and Vegetables

Kathleen Lee

The problem with ordering short ribs at restaurants is that it’s largely hit or miss they either cook it perfectly tender, or too stringy, leaving strands of meat stuck inyour teeth. Thismealgives you complete control so you can smile with confidence knowing that your date’sfocus is no longer that brown spot between your two front teeth.


Prosciutto and Arugula Pizza

Andrea Kang

Let’s hope that they haven’t heard of arugula or prosciutto, because this pizzawill make themthink you’re fancy AF. But let’s face it, you’re just a little bougie. Aren’t we all? They don’t have to know that.


Hibachi-Style Shrimp and Vegetables

Bernard Wen

Japanese steakhousesare cute and all for maybe your fifth, sixth or seventh date, but definitely not the very first one. You don’t have to feel uncomfortable when the chef makes an assumption and gives you two fried rice in the shape of a heart, because you can simply make your own hibachimeal at home.


Butter Parmesan Spaghetti Squash

Sarah Stettin

While we’d all enjoy a movie date, going there for the first time with someone new isn’t a great idea, because who hasn’t tried making the first move in a theater?Looks like you can’t have buttery parmesan popcorn, but you can have this squash spaghetti that has those same flavors. So really, same thing, right?


Maple-Smoked Pork Chops

Hannah Lin

It only takes three ingredients to make these chops, but then again, it only takes three minutes for a good date to go south. Either way, you’ll have some pretty dank pork,which will be enough reason for them to want a second date.


Mushroom and Ricotta Flatbread with Truffle Oil

Max Bartick

A light, yet filling flatbread that isn’t as stingy as a coffee date, but isn’t as big of a commitment as an Italian dinner. If it’s truly meant to be, they’ll like truffle oil just as much as you do.
