20+ New Year’s Eve Recipes and Ideas

1

Ravioli with Sage Butter Sauce

This was something very new for my somewhat picky family – and everyone loved it. I used two different kinds of fresh ravioli from the store. The sage had the most interesting texture and was so good. The pecans were also a great addition.

the best classic deviled eggs

I LOVE this recipe, it’s my go-to with just a few changes to make them mild for the young crowd: white vinegar instead of ACV and yellow mustard instead of Dijon. It’s a great basic recipe, thanks so much for providing it.

Creamy Mushroom Pasta

This mushroom pasta is to die for!!!! We used umami, shiitake, and baby Bella mushrooms and pappardelle pasta. My kids were as obsessed with it as I was. We will 100% make this again.

winter cheese board

Loved the recipe, made and everyone liked!

avocado deviled eggs

I used to never eat boiled eggs unless they were in a salad, much less straight up deviled eggs. Texture issues. These eggs are amazing! The bacon gives it some texture. Paired it with reading Dr. Seuss’s “Green Eggs and Ham” for the kiddos. Tangy, cilantro-y, damn delicious!!!

Maple Pecan Baked Brie

Garlic Butter Clams with White Wine Cream Sauce

Picked up some fresh clams from local fish market today. These were perfect! Served with lots of crusty bread and a lovely Chardonnay.

garlic shrimp and avocado crostini

Really yummy. I substituted minced cilantro for the parsley and spread spicy guacamole on the toast before topping with the shrimp mixture to prevent the liquid from softening the toast. Fantastic for a cocktail party– or breakfast – or anytime!

greek turkey meatballs

Love this recipe. I made it exactly as written and served over cous cous with zucchini and sprinkled feta on top. I’ll definitely make this again!

hot spinach and artichoke dip

Absolutely loved this recipe and plan to make it often. Some of these dips come out dry or tasteless but not Damn Delicious! This recipe starts with flavor, garlic. The only thing I changed was the spinach. I used fresh spinach, a lot less hassle and has taste. Thanks for a terrific recipe.

Easy Garlic Parmesan Knots

Well, these are damn delicious! We made these with a steak dinner and they were so delicious and easy to make! They are great leftover too! A must try!

Steamed Mussels in Tomato Cream Sauce

I made this last night. It was delicious! Recipe was very easy to follow and made a “scary” seafood ingredient approachable.

Bacon Wrapped Tater Tot Bombs

I made these for a class with this recipe back in 2018 in high school and they turned out perfectly and I got an A+ and i’ve been thinking about them since. It’s been 4 years.

Creamy Chorizo Queso Dip

Just made this tonight and it was so delicious. Couldn’t stop eating. The only change I made was dicing the jalapeno peppers. Definitely a keeper!

Garlic Rosemary Beef Tenderloin

Disclaimer: I’m not a great cook. But this recipe made my family think I am! We had it for Christmas last year and we’re making it again this year. It’s melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Perfection.

cranberry apple sangria

Made this last year for Thanksgiving, making it again this year. Everyone loved it! It was a perfect fall/winter sangria.

-Erica

17

Garlic Rosemary Lamb Chops

Made these last night and they were a hit! Loved the marinade—totally added flavor. I normally just season and put them under the broiler, but the marinade and searing them on the stove brought it to another level.

This looks beautiful! Gave me the idea to use my copper paella pan. Great!

-Anabela

How to Cook a Ribeye Steak

We didn’t use a bone in and it was still super flavorful and had a nice crust on it. Makes a mess on the stovetop but this is our new go to for steaks – the grill outside is going to be lonely!

-Dana

Pull Apart Garlic Bread Wreath

I stuffed them with mozzerella. Definitely a crowd pleaser! Will be making for Superbowl Sunday in a football shape.

Caramelized Onion Dip
