I love countdowns and Best of’s…
I remember when I was growing up always secretly watching MTV’s countdown of the best music videos of the year. MTV wasn’t allowed in our house back then…and now with shows like Jersey Shore…ha ha…there’s no way it would be allowed now either.
So here’s my own G-rated countdown that even my mom would approve of. Yesterday I listed Your Favorite Recipes of 2011 and today are some of my favorites that may have gotten overlooked. I was pregnant most of 2011, so you were subject to my cravings and food aversions.
We did, however, share some of the same favorite recipes of 2011. For the first couple of months of my pregnancy it was hard for me to even look at food let alone actually cook anything, but I came back with a vengeance with I nearly ate this entire Peanut Butter “Cheese” Ball by myself. Then, all I wanted was something savory and this Bloomin’ Onion Bread was just what I craved. Finally, the S’more Cookies, come on…who wouldn’t love those.
It was so hard to choose but here are a couple more of my favorite recipes from 2011…
Can’t wait to make some more food memories with you all next year. There are a lot of good things to look forward to in 2012!
Yum. That’s all.
Where to even begin..I have been making Christmas crack, i.e. Saltine Toffee and going to town on it, too.
And those stuffed muffins. I need to get busy on those!
Oh boy! All of these look oh so very yummy!
Those are some great picks! Happy New Year:-)
I tried your slow cooker chicken caesar sandwiches, and they were amazing…they will be made A LOT in 2012!
Happy New Year! Awesome round up of recipes!

I am so happy I found your Cooking blog in 2011! Happy New Year! And I saw your family picture in the Desert Book add we got in the mail! There was not an article about it, just a picture.. It was fun to see the picture and tell my hubby I got his favorite new cookie recipe from you! The oreo pudding cookies! thx!
@rachel,
It was so nice to meet you too. I think I had the flu because I felt awful. Sorry I was such a mess!
@kelly,
Interesting. No article? There was supposed to be an article about the nfl with it not about cooking:) I love those cookies!
I keep ending up on your site via Pinterest, so I decided it was time I became a follower/subscriber. Then I just read that you went to BYU, and I love you even more!
Congrats on your baby girl btw; we had 4 boys before getting our little princess. So fun, isn’t it!
Feliz Año 2012. Todas las recetas del Top Ten son fabulosas. Saludos
I’m going to have to go back & look at some of these – I must have missed them! They look so yummy. I too, saw your family pic in the Deseret Book flyer …. it was sort of floating above info on getting the SLTrib & Des News. It’s such a great picture of you guys!
Oo thanks for reminding me about the slow cooker chicken caesar!
