Last year, I started doing a post called the top 10 recipes at the end of the year. Now that Christmas has come and gone, it is time to start planning for 2017.
One way that I do that is by looking back at my posts for the year to see what people loved, what they didn't love, and just reflecting on all that I shared.

That is how this series was born. If you want to see last year's top 10 recipes, you can look here for 2015.
Some of the recipes on this list have been the top favorites since I started sharing recipes way back in the day.
It's funny now that when I look back and see how I got started sharing food with my homeschool friends on here, how it just blossomed — and that was before I even knew what a food blogger was!

I have game day recipes you can look up, picnic recipes, crockpot recipes, and more.
And — I have a secret for you! Starting in January, I will be starting a video series on my website. I am going to be showing working moms how to make super easy meals — ones that take little to no time but offer a delicious dinner for their crew. I am so excited about this moment!
If you have a sheet pan, get ready to put it to use because we are going to be making a lot of one-pan meals!
