"top recipes" news and stories

I know that people like to complain about the Food Network, but for the most part I tend to enjoy their programming. I often find myself turning to their website when I'm searching for particular recipes or inspiration for a specific ingredient. I spotted their 100 Top Recipes Feature a couple of days ago and I've been seeing mention of it on several other food blogs (this is my way of saying that I'm a few days late to the party in mentioning this, but it's still good stuff nonetheless).

The pictures are terrific and it's fun to browse through and see the types of foods that made the list. I think that it's interesting that of the top ten recipes, seven are decidedly comfort foods. Of the remaining three, two are desserts and one is a breakfast dish. Head over and dig around, there's something in that Top 100 for just about everyone.

Gawd knows how many blogs cover the foodie sphere these days... here are a few posts from my browsing that look superb, i.e. I plan to give the recipe a try out.

28 Cooks has an Upside Down Gingerbread and Cranberry Cake.... for the vegetarian there is a Curried Vegetable Bisque from A Veggie Adventure... for the baker Andrea's Recipes has Oatmeal Cream Scones which look delicious... snacks and nibbles appear from Sweden's Cooking Diva Anne of Anne's Food Spicy Almonds (pictured) and from England's resident Austrian blogging cook, Johanna the Passionate Cook, with Feta, Melon, Olive and Mint Skewers.

While Johanna continues her skewering Chubby Hubby asks us to Try This At Home with his take on Baked Cod with Miso... while Cindy abandons all hope of maintaining her svelte-like figure by devouring the "richest cake I have ever made", a mouthwatering Chocolate Torte. And then back to Sweden for Blå Jungfruns muffins from Clivis's Cuisine. More sweetness over at English Patis with a Banana Date Cake.

Blimey, how am I gonna make all these?! Still more in my "must try file". Kalyn's Kitchen has Pork Chops with a Balsamic Glaze and finally, if only because I have a huge wodge of chorizo in the fridge, there is Chickpea and chorizo stew from Taste Everything Once.

So there you have it - nibbles, main courses, snacks, appetizers and more cake and dessert than is healthy. If you have a great post you would like to share complete with recipe and quality photography why not drop us a line via our tips page?
