My Top 10 Favorite Recipes From 2015

I wanted to share some of my favourite recipes from this past year. 

I always love looking back over all the posts and trying to decide what my favorites were. I am always like, “oh ya, that one was awesome” or “man I forgot how good that one was!” It is a good reminder to put some good recipes back into regular rotation!

10. Angel Sugar Cookies

These babies are SO very good. They are tender and chewy and the cream of tartar gives them a great tangy flavour. I love that they can be adapted for any occasion! Loved them!

9. Creamiest Shells & Cheese

Ohhhh how I love these shells and cheese. I mean you all know my feelings on mac & cheese and this is just one of my all-time fav’s.

So simple and quick and uber comforting!

8. Rhubarb Snack Cake

I love anything with Rhubarb in it. This tender cake was super. I love finding new recipes for rhubarb and this one is a keeper for sure.

7. Pineapple Ginger Chicken

I totally love Asian style food. This dish really hits the spot when you have a mad craving for Chinese take-out.  The sauce is out of this world and the chicken is super crispy and baked, which is a healthier alternative. A little rice and a spring roll and you have yourself a better than take-out dinner.

6. Zucchini Apple Muffins

I am always on the lookout for a good muffin recipe. This one was a winner for me. They are so tender and moist and so full of flavor. These muffins made a great mid-morning snack for work.

5. Skillet Breakfast

I could eat this multiple times a week. I am obsessed with it. It encompasses everything I love about breakfast all in one skillet. It is easily adaptable to your own tastes, which I love. It makes a perfect breakfast and an even more perfect breakfast FOR dinner!

4. 4 Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies

I think cookies are my favorite thing to bake. I love cookies, my hips, on the other hand, not so fond of big batches of cookies. This amazing little recipe for 4 perfect and I do mean PERFECT, chocolate chip cookies is the best ever. You get to give into your cookie craving without all the guilt of eating ALL the cookies. I give this recipe a big old 2 thumbs up!

3. Pulled Pork Mac & Cheese

I feel like if I have to explain to you why this is on my top 10 list then you just don’t get me… I mean just look at it, it is a thing of beauty.

Make it stuff it in your face, just do it!

2. Chewy Peanut Butter Breakfast Bars

These have become a household staple. My in house taste tester LOVES these. I make a batch every couple of weeks and wrap them individually and keep them in the fridge. That way he can just grab one and go. They make a great breakfast or snack!

1. Pan Fried Gnocchi with Sautéed Tomatoes and Boccaccini

I couldn’t love this dish any more than I do. It is pasta perfection. I am seriously salivating just thinking about how great this pasta tastes. It is super quick and easy and tastes like a dream. It was definitely my favourite dish of the whole year!

I am excited to see what kind of yummy things I can come up with in 2016. I hope you all keep reading and cooking along with me!

Happy New Year Everybody!

Here is to a healthy happy delicious 2016!
