I was looking through this past year's recipes thinking I'd come up with a top 5 list. Well, I found over 25 recipes that I absolutely love - some, like the sauteed zucchini, because they are astoundingly delicious to the point I find myself craving it. Others, like the bruschetta chicken, broiled tilapia and the canadian bacon egg and cheese english muffins, because they are everything I want in a recipe - delicious, healthy, fast and the kids will eat it. I make these recipes over and over again. This past year I mastered the stir fry/saute technique. I learned to make homemade bread well. I began making my own chicken stock. I fell in love with roasting because it is so simple and so delicious - a chicken, an eye of the round roast, a turkey breast, any and every vegetable. It was hard to narrow it down! So here are my top 10 and then a few honorable mentions :)
Pan seared sea scallops
Sauteed zucchini
Canadian bacon, egg & cheese English muffins
Salmon patties
Roasted veggies
Sweet potato fries
Grilled pizza
Simple roast chicken
Simple beef roast
Chicken souvlaki with tzatziki sauce
Honorable mentions: bruschetta chicken, parmesan crusted tilapia, stir fry, sauteed kale and turkey meatloaf for being healthy, delicious and something I can get on the table easily. Whole grain pancakes for being delicious and great for making a huge batch and freezing. Chicken saltimbocca for being gourmet and mostly make ahead. Iced mocha for refreshing and giving me energy to make it through long summer days.
