Regardless of how you feel about Valentine’s Day - whether you adore all things romantic, or think it’s all a load of old tosh - it offers a delightful excuse to enjoy a great meal with someone you care about, be it a romantic partner, family, a housemate or just your bestie.

But we don’t all have the time to spend in our kitchen cooking up a two course meal from scratch - especially this year, when 14 February falls on a Tuesday,  when many of us will spend most of the day at work or higher education. No one would judge you for turning to a Tesco Finest ready meal.

The supermarket has launched its annual ‘Valentine’s Day Finest dinner for two meal deal’. With a total of 10 mains, 6 sides, 6 desserts and 10 drinks to choose from, including heart shaped dishes, there are multiple meal combinations you can create. It’s one of the most budget friendly options available this year too - providing you have signed up to the Tesco Clubcard scheme - costing just £6 per head.

Alongside the fantastic food offering, Tesco are also selling a line of love themed gifts, including mugs, games, kitchenware and sentimental pieces, making it even easier to get Valentine’s Day 2023 all wrapped up.
