Everyone Else Is Doing It - Top 11 of 2011

Okay, so I didn't want to be left out...everyone else is posting their top posts for the year, so I thought I would check mine out as well.  And just to be dumb different, I'm posting my top ELEVEN for 2011. It's been a super fast year, and filled with lots of yummy food.  Which explains why my pants are so tight....New Year's Resolutions anyone?!

 
Bacon Wrapped Green Bean Bundles (bacon is really popular)


Slow Cooked Sticky Chicken


Easter Cupcakes (one of my favorites this year too!)


Low Sugar/low carb Chocolate Eclair Cake


Biscoff Cookie Dough Dip (Biscoff = favorite find of the year!)


Strawberry Zucchini Marmalade


Homemade 'King's Hawaiian' Bread


Deep Dish Cookie Pie (baking with chickpeas - another favorite discovery this year!)


Low Carb Pizza Casserole


Low Carb Homemade 'Thin Mints'


Easy Chicken & 'Dumplings' in the crockpot

Now I'm hungry.  Thanks to everyone who has supported my blogging efforts this year.  It's been a fun journey and one my family has appreciated (for the most part).  I've been slack recently, slipping back into old habits of reaching for convenience items and quick fixes - so I'm definitely going to be making an effort to do better.  More fresh ingredients and meal planning for 2012! And working out....lots of working out.  (I hope)  Gotta lose these extra pounds so I can be a hot mama this year too. L-O-L!
