The Best of 2009

I don’t know about you, but after indulging so much over the holiday I’m more than ready to get back to eating healthy, nutritious foods. I’ve been cooking up a storm in the kitchen and have a few great new recipes to share with you. But first I thought it would be appropriate to reflect back on some of my favorite recipes from the past year. I’ve made more than a few great dishes since I got serious about blogging last winter and it seems like a shame to let them get lost in the archives.

So to help you start the New Year off on the right foot, here’s a roundup of some of the most crave-worthy recipes that have appeared on Healthy.Delicious. in 2009. This list certainly doesn’t represent all of my favorites (if I don’t absolutely love something that I make, I generally don’t post it) but they are some of the healthier recipes that I keep going back to and that you can realistically make during this time of the year. I had some fabulous recipes over the summer, but they just wouldn’t be the same without fresh, in-season produce.

Here’s to a great New Year full of healthy and delicious meals, good friends both new and old, and success in and out of the kitchen! If you had to pick one meal as your favorite of 2009, what would it be?

  1. So I can’t say I’ve been a good enough blogger to keep up lately, and I haven’t tried all those recipes, but I can say as soon as I saw the Pumpkin polenta with chorizo I put it on my “to make” list!!!

    Hope you’re having a great 2010 so far!!

  2. This is a perfect post for the new year! So many are starting new journeys and your recipes are wonderful! This next year is going to bring so much =D.

  3. Ymmmmm….I’ve been meat-free (and chicken-fee) since the mid-seventies. Some of your healthy dishes looked so good I wanted to dive right into them.
