It's that time when we reflect back fondly on the happenings of the year. Which means top 10 -- or top 100 or top-whatever-number -- lists galore! I, for one, love all the "top things" lists that come out at the end of the year. It's a fun way to walk down and reminisce on the year's "Memory Lane."
So in that same vein, we love to take a look back at the top recipes of the year here at The Kitchen is My Playground. These recipes are the top 12 most-viewed out of our over 1,000 recipes on the site.
