The Best of 2013

December 30, 2013

Another year is winding down, so I thought it would be fun to take a look back through So, How’s It Taste in 2013. I’ve never done one of these top 10 lists before and it was really interesting to see what posts were your favorites. I also made a top 10 of my personal favorites from this year. Narrowing it down to only 10 was a tough job!

Your Top 10 Favorites

1. Taco Spaghetti – This completely surprised me that it was the most popular! It’s such a simple dish and sounds kind of crazy. I’m glad to find out you all enjoyed this dish as much as I do.

2. Fun Healthy Lunches – This one was such a fun post. I’m actually making these lunches again since it’s after the holidays and I’m ready to eat a little more clean. Detox!
