The 25 Most Popular Recipes of 2020.

With the New Year almost here, we are sharing the 25 Most Popular Recipes of 2020. This has been a year of A LOT of new recipes, a lot of cooking, so much baking, and plenty of cocktail mixing…more than ever before! Below are the top 25 most popular recipes. Can you guess the most popular HBH recipe of the year?

Happy Monday! And it is a happy Monday because it’s a long holiday week with New Year’s Eve on Thursday, followed of course, by New Year’s Day! I said this yesterday, but don’t you guys love this time between Christmas and New Years’? I’m always sad to see the Christmas festivities end (actually so sad), but I love having family in town for the week and being able to take things a bit slower. Though I do have a hard time making myself do slow. Working on this!

I share out this “Popular Recipes” post every year at about this time. Surprisingly, it’s always one of the more popular posts. I never think you’ll really enjoy any type of round-up style post because there’s no new recipe. But you guys have shown me otherwise. I guess it’s nice to have everyone’s favorites recipes all in one place for easy reference!

Before I dive into the recipes, I really just want to say a huge thank you to you all. It’s been so much fun seeing what everyone has been cooking and baking, especially this holiday season. I said this at Thanksgiving….but we’ve never seen so many HBH recipes being made. There’s been a whole lot of cocktail mixing, cinnamon roll baking, pasta tossing, and so much cookie baking. It’s incredible and I’m extra thankful for you guys and your constant support and kindness. We love our little HBH family.

And with that, I hope you guys are having an amazing holiday break!!

26. Bonus: Healthier Dark Chocolate Chunk Oatmeal Cookie Bars

Everyone LOVES these bars! Plus, they’re pretty difficult to mess up…they always turn out GREAT.

25. Cheesy Zucchini Chicken and Rice Bake

Finish this one off under the broiler to melt the cheese and get it crispy and crunchy. Simple, but SO GOOD.

23. Sheet Pan Lemon Rosemary Dijon Chicken and Potatoes with Feta Goddess Sauce

Lemon, rosemary, and Dijon marinated chicken roasted alongside sesame-crusted potatoes and asparagus. Topped with a creamy garlicky feta goddess sauce and any herbs you can find. Not your average sheet pan dinner, but so delicious.

Mexican seasoned chicken, rice, and enchilada sauce all cooked together in one skillet, then topped with tortilla chips and plenty of cheese. The easiest…and so good.

21. Molten Chocolate Crackle Pie

The crust is buttery, flaky, and sprinkled with sweet vanilla sugar. While the filling inside is warm, fudgy, and almost molten-like. Delicious when served with a dollop of vanilla hazelnut whipped cream. If you haven’t made this yet, make it before 2021. Trust me.

20. Frosted Mistletoe Margarita

This drink!!! I shared this a week ago and it’s very quickly climbing to the top most popular recipes…maybe of all time. I’ve never seen a recipe take off as this drink has. It. Is. Incredible.

This Pad Thai is saucy, tangy, a touch salty, and just a little spicy. It’s heavy on the rice noodles and comes together in no time.

14. Spicy Honey Mustard Pretzel Chicken Fingers

Seasoned with homemade honey mustard, breaded in salty pretzel crumbs, oven-baked, then dipped in a spicy-hot honey sauce, followed up with a cooling ranch. These are the “grown-up” version of chicken fingers…that kids love too.

13. Easy Fluffy Eggnog Cinnamon Rolls

10. Broccoli Cheddar Chicken and Rice Casserole

Kind of like broccoli cheddar soup meets cozy weeknight casserole. It’s healthy…ish, so darn easy, and so darn delicious.

A delicious, fun, and healthy dinner any night of the week!

6. One Skillet Greek Meatballs and Lemon Butter Orzo

Add lemony whipped feta and sun-dried tomato vinaigrette. The perfect weeknight dinner…simple, hearty, and delicious! Truly one of those dinners that everyone at the table will love. Great for a weeknight, but fancy and unique enough to serve to guests as well.

5. Weeknight Thai Chicken Meatball Khao Soi

This northern Thai inspired noodle soup is the simplest weeknight dinner. Made with flavorful Thai curry paste, coconut milk, and plenty of fresh herbs and lime juice. Toss in seared gingery chicken meatballs and plenty of delicious egg noodles, it’s hard to beat the easy Thai soup.

A quick Thai chicken noodle bowl that looks like takeout, but tastes so much better…and it’s healthier too!  Fun fact about this recipe? Gigi Hadid made it the day I shared the photo on Instagram and I ‘m pretty sure that’s one of the reasons this recipe became so popular. BUT it’s also just really DELICIOUS. Every bite is saucy, sweet, spicy, and hinted with basil. It’s delicious and healthy.

1. Crispy Chipotle Chicken Tacos with Cilantro Lime Ranch

I actually could not be more excited that this is everyone’s favorite recipe of 2020. We LOVE these tacos. So much so, that I actually made them for Christmas dinner this year and now everyone is thinking they should be a new Christmas Dinner tradition. These tacos are crunchy on the outside, but spicy and cheesy inside. Serve each taco with a creamy, cooling cilantro lime ranch sauce, and a mix of your favorite taco toppings. They come together in minutes and are so delicious…the perfect weeknight dinner.
