Choose a main course that will spice up your love life--literally. Hot chili is not only a fantastic way to create a flavorful meal, it is a natural aphrodisiac and can be added to a seafood pasta for maximum results. Make sides to compliment your main course that are made from other libido lifters, such as asparagus garnished with a sauce made from pine nuts, basil and tomato.

Create a sexy aphrodisiac dessert that will add the final touch to your sensual dinner. Chocolate, one of the most popular aphrodisiacs known to man, has a flavor which is enhanced with a sweet champagne.

Turn up the heat by creating a sexy atmosphere, an element almost as important as the meal. Light candles, sprinkle the table with rose petals and play soft, romantic music. Vanilla or apple-cinnamon scented candles can also help to set the mood for your aphrodisiac dinner and make you and your partner more comfortable.
