After all the calories you burn in the heat of the moment, it’s only natural for couples to crave something as delicious as their partner. Below are a few ideas and quick recipes to satisfy your hunger so you quickly get back to what’s important, each other.
Personally, my most often “after lovemaking” craved food is pizza. But, who wants to wait for one to be delivered or for a frozen one to cook? So instead I opt for quick and easy bagel pizzas. To make these, preheat the oven to around 350° F. Slice a few bagels in half, spread some pizza or spaghetti sauce on them. Then, top with your favorite pizza toppings. Or, try something new like shrimp and chives or chicken. Bake for about 7 – 10 minutes depending on your oven.
It’s easy to get dehydrated after sex. Quench your thirst with something as delectable as your honey: fruit with honey and orange fruit dip. Whip 8 oz. cottage cheese until fluffy. Gradually add in 1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons orange juice and a 1/2 teaspoon orange peel. Serve with sliced fruit.
A fun and incredibly easy “quickie” snack to prepare are fries. My husband and I always have at least a few bags of different kinds of frozen fries for late night cravings. Find brands that have similar cooking times and heats. When they are fully cooked, spread them out on a large plate with small dishes of dipping sauces. For a special treat, sprinkle with grated cheese and/or seasoned salt.
My husband’s favorite after sex food is ice cream. That’s if he hasn’t eaten it off me first! >:) Have fun creating the largest sundae you can. Then feeding it to each other.
These are just a few fun favorites. Look for my next installment of after the passion recipes in the food & wine department. In the meantime, answer our quick poll, “What is YOUR favorite after sex food?
