Every December, I look forward to doing the tally on your favorite recipes of the year, our own tiny culinary Oscars.
Unlike movie season, the front runners usually emerge early in the year, when you’re spending more time searching for healthy recipes. And since I left my excel skills behind at my corporate cubical in 2009, I’m not savvy enough to weight the results according to how many months a recipe has been live.
(Calling all healthy hedonist mathematicians for a solution!)
Still, there are always interesting themes that emerge. This year you favored many a one-pan or pot meal–some vegan, most paleo, all perfect for a weeknight meal.
The one exception to the group is Alexandra Stafford’s recipe for gluten-free peasant bread, which has been making the rounds with much enthusiasm in your kitchens.
Read on for the official top 10 rankings, plus a bonus 11th because I counted wrong during my first tally!
But before you get there, I want to share MY favorite 3 recipes that didn’t make the list. I hope you’ll give these another look and potentially a trial run in your kitchens in 2018:
Saffron Risotto with Lemony Braised Vegetables
Harissa Chicken with Dates, Pistachios and Cauliflower Couscous
Moroccan Lamb Lettuce Wraps with Ras El Hanout
Thank you all for helping make 2017 such an incredible year. It’s been an exciting, humbling and jam-packed one i’ll never forget.
One of the biggest personal growth benefits of having The Wellness Project out in the world has been the chance to connect with more of you on a deeper level.
I’m so grateful for all your emails sharing small victories, autoimmune growing pains, and amazing questions that have forced me to think more about my own choices, and how to better serve this community.
In case you missed it, I created a little thank you gift for the holidays: my FREE e-book How to Meal Prep Like a Pro.
My hope is that this guide will help you make more of the below meals, more often. With less waste for your wallet and the planet.
If you love these recipes but don’t know how to integrate batch cooking into your life, plan for the whole week, or save money while cooking healthier food, this is the resource for you.
As for me, I’ll be in Hawaii for the next week celebrating my mom’s 70th birthday, reflecting on the last 12 months, and getting fully re-energized to hit the ground running with the 4 Weeks to Wellness program on January 8th.
Happy New Year in advance my healthy hedonists! You inspire me so much every day, and I can’t wait to keep feeding each other in 2018.
With love, health and hedonism,
Phoebe
