Thank you for posting so many delicious and well-tested recipes! I made 5 of these last year (the cranberry muffins are on repeat).
Yay, I’m so glad, thanks Dayna 🙂
Interesting how often lemons appear in these recipes–both sweet and savory! Thanks for your recipes and inspiration, and Happy New Year!
So true, lemons are my mascot!
These are all outstandingly delicious. It’s no wonder so many of us love your site.
The only thing that spoils it is the ad for toenail clippers for seniors that sits at the bottom.
Just doesn’t fit together ;- ((
Sorry Dorothy! Sadly, I’m not in control of which ads show where, but different ads will show for different folks, and sometimes a dud gets through 😉
Why did you use a picture of that yummy looking bean and greens soup on this post and not include itas one of your 25? Please tell me the name so I can search your site and find it
Hi Charles, that’s Italian white bean and sausage soup.
Thank you. It looks delicious. Can’t wait to make it
How is it that I’ve made none of these yet?? This is a great list for the new year, especially that Thai noodle one. I need some of these for new dinner ideas.
The ONLY holiday baked goods I made this year were your Gingerbread cake recipe and your stamped gingerbread cookies. I brought that cake EVERYWHERE this season for a total of 7 bakes in both my mini and large gingerbread bundt cakes. It not only looked perfect, it tasted even better! Thanks for spicing up the holidays!
omg Alison you’ve got some catching up to do 😉 Happy New Year!
Oh, these look so good Sue! Thank you for putting them in one place – will have to try some of these recipes out. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year Donna <3
I have made so many of your recipes, I love them all. Your photography makes me drool! I seem to go back to Chopped Steak with Bacon and Mushroom Gravy, such a comfort dish to me. I have made it with both dried and baby bellas (what I had on hand) Lemon dill salmon is another one we liked a lot Next on my list is sauerbraten.
Thank you, Carol
Thanks so much Carol, I agree with your picks, I love them both 🙂 Happy New Year.
When I saw the opening photo, I was thrilled that one of my favorites this year–the Italian white bean soup with meatballs–made the list. But alas, no. I make that soup regularly now and have shared the recipe with friends, who also put it into their rotation. It is sensational!
Other favorites this year: gluten-free tangerine cake, Ina Garten’s mustard-roasted chicken, and stuffed pepper soup. Thanks, Sue, and happy new year! Looking forward to another year of great cooking!
Haha, I added that photo because I love it too! The stuffed pepper soup ALMOST made the list, and it’s one of my personal faves. Looking forward to 2022 for so many reasons 😉
