I love seeing what y’all are searching for, what y’all are viewing, and what y’all are enjoying that I’ve made and shared with y’all. Every December 31st, I sit down in the morning and hit my analytics and it shows me what the most viewed recipes have been over the past year.
In 2018 y’all were loving drinks, savory, spicy, crunchy, shareable, dippable, keto, and family comfort foods!
