A Good Dish

A Good Dish – Favorites From Our First Year

January 4, 2017

A Good Dish got up and running in 2016!
A Good Dish got up and running in 2016!

Looking back over all of the recipes I posted last year in A Good Dish, there are some standouts I make over and over. These are the cool weather dishes my family and I don’t tire of, the ones I fall back on when I don’t have another meal in mind and the ones that guests are happy being served and often ask for the recipe. If you didn’t start reading the blog from day 1, you may have missed some. So in the spirit of holiday sharing, here are the links to a dozen of our regulars made with ingredients available now. (No tomato salads or steamed asparagus, for example). Let me know if you add them to your favorites. Happy New Year, happy cooking and happy eating!
