I love food blogging. The only drawback is I’m
always trying new recipes, so I don’t often get to go back
and make my favorite ones from the past. Once I post a recipe, I’m on to a new
one.
Here are my favorites from 2012…some of which I’ve made over
and over and others I plan to fit into the menu planning again soon!
Needy People Chicken Soup: I’ve made this one a lot.
Actually, I make my thrown-together chicken soup and add Asian flavors inspired
by a Nigella Lawson recipe. Yummm.
Pimiento Cheese: I love this creamy-chunky spread, and this
Canal House Cooking recipe is perfect.
Orange Marmalade Teacake: Perfect to go along with a winter
cup of tea…or coffee at breakfast!
Ina Garten’s Mexican Chicken Soup and Chicken Piccata: Two
great dishes from the Barefoot Contessa.
Oven-Baked Pork Chops: I make these all the time!
Birthday Baked Beans: No one of my favorites, but my husband,
The Picky Eater, loves this dish!
Coffee Cup Chocolate Cake: I make this one a lot when in
need of a comforting chocolate treat.
Ultimate Grilled Cheese Sandwich :
This is the ultimate!
Fresh Fruit Supper: A taste of summer any time of year, but
best with fruit from the farmer’s market.
Mini Meatloaves and Slow Cooker Meatloaf: Both are favorites
in this household!
Spaghetti in Cream and Butter Sauce: Pure comfort!
Snap Crackle Crunch Ice Cream: I may not be able to wait for
summer to make this one!
Roast Chicken a la Julia Child: One of my all-time favorite
dinners.
Pot Roast: My husband’s all-time favorite Sunday Supper!
Slow Cooker Vegetable Beef Soup: I think this recipe will
show up a lot this winter.
Wow, picking my favorites was hard since my mood often
dictates what my appetite desires, so this list could be different from day to
day.
Here is my New Year’s Resolution to you: I promise to create
a recipe index to make it easier for you to find my past recipes. Stay tuned.
Have a wonderful New Year’s Eve. I hope 2013 brings you all
your heart desires!
Hi Linda, Happy New Year! What a great roundup of recipes from the past year. They are definitely worth revisiting!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Linda! I, too, find that returning to tried and true recipes is difficult when blogging ... it IS always a matter of balancing the new recipes with time for returning to good ones I've made in the past.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing what you come up with in 2013! make it a good year! Peace!
I really like your idea of "recipes I'd make again". I pinned that coffee cup cake and it get more repins than about anything. I also love mini-meatloafs. I think it's my greatest food blogging find. Chicken picatta is one of my go-to weeknight meals, however, I've never tried Ina's recipe. Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great round-up of recipes here! Happy New Year!
