It’s been a whirlwind year. Well, actually the last three years have been a whirlwind — and that means all out blogging was forced to the back burner. As you probably know, we updated a house in Ohio — including a new kitchen, bathrooms and more. And then decided to sell and move across country. It took three trips to find a house that sort of fit our requirements and then had to update the new one. I have tons of DIY pictures and plan to share what we learned along the way, including some hard lessons in Moving 101. But in the meantime, everyone has to eat! Here are the top ten recipes from 2016, in no particular order:
Quick and easy to make, delicious fruit dessert. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream for extra yum!
Eggnog Fudge It tastes just like eggnog!
Quick Scrambled Eggs and Bacon for a Crowd
Perfect little omelets, light, fluffy and tender eggs, with crispy bacon in the middle.
Quick and Easy Apple Cream Cheese Danish Cream cheese sharpened with lemon and topped with cinnamony apple pie filling on a barely there crust — heavenly for breakfast. Or dessert. Or anytime.
Orzo and Chicken Skillet is a quick fix with full flavor. Tender chicken with a whisper of garlic, delicate orzo cooked in broth with healthy zucchini and tomatoes. On the table in about 30 minutes.
So good you will NOT want to share (it makes a great gift!)
Tender grilled chicken with a little bit of balsamic tang to liven up the flavor of a nicely balanced mixture of herbs. Make ahead and freeze. Marinate and cook the same day. Place slices, warm or cold, on a bed of lettuce for a great salad. Quick and versatile.
Crispy tostadas layered with refried beans, shredded pork and cheese with toppings of your choice.
Old Fashioned Brownies with Chocolate Frosting
My sister asked if I had a brownie recipe. Here’s one of three I shared.
A pretty addition to a candy plate or a dessert buffet. It is quick and easy to make – almost foolproof.
Wishing you a wonderful 2017!!!!
