These are my recipe resolutions. I have 52 weeks and 52 recipes to try! (I’m likely not going to get around to each of these … but a girl can dream.) Oh, and these are in no particular order at all. Putting 52 links in one post was enough work.
Also, some of these recipes involve things I’m obsessed with lately: kale, pomegranates, ginger, quinoa, oats, couscous, black beans and, of course, avocado. I could eat most of those foods daily and be quite happy.
2. Lemon, ginger and parsley smoothie
3. Easy microwave peanut brittle
5. Red quinoa and black bean vegetable salad
7. Peanut butter swirl pancakes
10. Pretzel bites (Nathan wants to make these– I just know it!)
17. Ginger spritzer
21. Easy no cook fudge (vegan)
22. Naturally sweetened homemade granola
23. Brussels sprout hash with caramelized shallots
24. Pineapple kale salad with black beans and avocado
29. Oatmeal choco chip cookies (gluten-free)
31. Raw walnut + almond cookies
32. Apple ginger spice cookies
33. Black bean, corn and brown rice tacos
34. Chocolate pomegranate clusters
35. Rice pilaf with kale, cashew and veggies (and pomegranate!)
37. Steak salad
38. Black bean soup
40. Orecchiette with spinach and gorgonzola sauce
41. Vegan lasagna
42. Black bean and butternut squash burritos
44. Traditional French bread (still meaning to post my bread making adventure!)
46. Honey whole wheat peanut butter chippers
47. Protein-packed green smoothie
48. Sunflower spinach vegan pesto
49. Sun butter banana protein bars
50. Frozen fruit pie
51. Simple apple pie (I’ve been wanting to make a pie for about 4.3 months now.)
52. Best salad dressing ever (raw) — this one almost doesn’t count. We made it in December. If you got all the way down here, wow. I’m impressed. This is just a really crazy list with no photos, and for that, I’m sorry. But, I’ll be back with a hopefully more exciting post in the near future.
Oh, one more note. I love all these bloggers/foodies that I linked to. They are awesome. This gives you a taste of the food blogs that I frequent … or am addicted to. Whatever.

Hey, thanks for including my cookies on your list, and the wonderful shout-out. I appreciate it so much!
Sure thing! Can’t wait to try the gingersnaps.
Ah, this made me hungry! You mentioned being in love with pomegranates lately, so IF you have time in between all of this wonderfulness, you might want to try this recipe for green beans with pomegranate vinaigrette. Super yummy, and the colors are just lovely:

Take care!

Thanks for the suggestion! That looks so good! Plus, my husband loves green beans. I’ll have to make it.
Ambitious goals: I’m impressed. I blog for SunButter, so I’m eager for #49. But I’m also addicted to avocado, so I’m looking forward to that inspiration as well. Looking forward to following your adventures. Take care!
Yes– gotta love the avocado. Thanks for stopping by!
Wow! Thank you for posting my salad! Happy recipe making. Sounds like a really fun project :)
You’re welcome, and thanks!
Great list! And I’m so happy that two of my recipes are on it :)
I bookmark so many recipes too, and this seems like a good way to keep track of the ones you want to make!
I thought it might be a good way to try to keep them organized. I have so many methods myself … some I save in a draft email for easy access. There are many on Pinterest, and then my Google Reader is exploding with starred entries that I scroll through looking for something that I think I saw on a blog entry once! I might start printing some I know I want to make right away so those don’t get lost in the shuffle of bookmarks! Thanks for reading, by the way!
Those are all good methods! Right now I mostly rely on my bookmarks folder in Firefox, which I’ve tried to organize into a lot of categories and sub-categories…that way, if I’m in the mood for pasta or soup or need breakfast or cookie ideas, I can browse through my folders…and if I have a certain ingredient I don’t know what to do with, I do a search of my bookmarks to see what recipes have that word in their title. It works pretty well but I still forget about some of the recipes I see that I want to make, so that’s when your strategy would come in handy!
