It was a great year on the CRAFTZINE blog for foodies as well as those just casually looking for an easy meal, a homemade gift from the kitchen, or a new main to serve to the fam. I’ve collected some of our more popular recipes — those that took off on Facebook, really excited the editors, or made a splash on StumbledUpon. I think it’s an awesome list, and I plan on making all these recipes in the new year.
A few words of warning — going through this list may make you extremely hungry, thirsty, or both. It’s best to sit down with a pad and paper so you can start your shopping list for the ingredients you’ll soon be craving.
Balsamic and Thyme Roasted Portabella Mushrooms — Good for Thanksgiving, good as appetizers, good for vegetarian feasts.
Flavorful Fudge — Fudge needs no explanation. And we’ve got five variations of no-explanation-needed for you to try.
Grilled Balsamic Basil Flank Steak — This was a popular recipe throughout the summer, and with good reason.
Enchiladas Verdes de Jocoque — Green chile, cheese, and sour cream makes for a delicious sauce.
