- Easy – low-fuss recipes that don’t skimp on flavor
- Quick – you all loved shortcuts like the Air Fryer! We all appreciate getting dinner on the table fast.
- Budget-friendly – inflation hit America’s pocketbooks this year so it’s not surprising that the top recipes were also affordable options. these recipes prove you don’t have to spend a fortune to eat well.
- Traditional – many of you were making recipes that are old comfort foods like Sloppy Joes and Chili. Nostalgic recipes will never go out of style.
