Top 10 Healthy Recipes of 2016

Looking back to my top 10 healthy recipes of 2016. There's no reason for healthy cooking to be boring, and these recipes prove that!

It feels like just yesterday that I posted 100 Recipe for Weight Loss & Heathy Living in 2016, but that was almost a full year ago. Truly, it's been a busy year for our family - selling our house in Utah, packing up and say good-bye to friends and moving to our new home in Washington state. A lot can happen in just one year!

There have been bumps along the way for everyone in 2016. I think most of us are glad to usher in a fresh, shiny new year, even with all of the changes and uncertainties that may lie ahead. But one thing is certain...good, healthy food is always a welcome diversion.

I went back into my site analytics and pulled out the recipes from 2016 that are YOUR favorites. The ones you've made over and over again, the ones you've saved to Pinterest, shared on Facebook and the ones you made for family and friends (thank you a million times over), and came up with a Top 10 list. Here we go...
