My Favorite Recipes from Lockdown
As I’ve previously posted, I have done a LOT of cooking these last few months, so I thought I’d share links to the most successful recipes I used during lockdown!
Copycat Chick-Fil-A Sandwich and Sauce – This was amazing. I can’t wait to make it (eat it) again.
Copycat Olive Garden Breadsticks – this was definitely the fluffiest, lightest bread I’ve made. It is SO good. I’ve made them twice and each time they were fully devoured by my family.
Indian Butter Chicken and Naan – This was a huge hit with EVERYONE. I’ve made this a couple of times and every time there are no leftovers. I have one kid who is very, very picky and he at least eats the naan with white rice. 🙂
Flatbread – I’ve made this plain, I’ve used it as a base for pizza, and for bbq pork flatbreads with pineapple (I’ve done this about three times…). I’ve had total success with it every time, and the texture is just SO great.
Key Lime Pie – I bought graham cracker crust for this and it could NOT be easier.
Sunny No-Bake Lemon Ice Box Cake – I’ve been making this for years, but it’s one of my favorite things EVER so I had to share it in this post.
Pavlova – I first tried this in Australia (with apologies to New Zealand, I know it’s yours) with passion fruit curd. I tried to make it once and failed miserably, and then somehow have made three perfect ones during lockdown and they’re SO good.
Passionfruit Curd – I’ve been wanting to have passionfruit curd again ever since I tried it in Australia but have not been able to find passion fruit in my corner of Oregon. So I ordered passionfruit pulp off the internet. It doesn’t have seeds, but it made a very tasty passionfruit curd!
Chicken Tamale Pie – We’ve made this a few times using leftover chicken or leftover pork, shredded up. I also like to add olives to mine because I love olives. I use Jiffy Cornbread mix because it’s both cheap AND easy.
