Happy 2015!
Almost.
Vegas and I escaped to Lake Tahoe for NYE and some other shenanigans, so today’s WIAW post is a look back on the top posts of 2014.
Thank you to everyone for helping make 2014 one of the best yet. I’ve loved making new friends, learning a lot, and eating a TON of (strange but) good food.
Without further adieu, here are the top 10 posts you thought were good (and likely a little strange) in 2014.
Top 10 in 2014
10. 3 Surprisingly Quick Meals
Here are three meals that I threw together quickly when what I had on hand. They look fancy-ish, but they were incredibly easy (and fun) to make: Stuffed French Toast Egg Wrap, Squachos (nachos… but with squash), and a Pressed Bison Wrap.
9. 5 Benefits of Drinking Water
I bet you didn’t know a few of these benefits! Drinking is good. Especially on New Year’s.
8. Cleaning Up My Act
The one where I decided to do (what has become) my annual cleanse. And I made some delicious puddin’.
7. Spaghetti Squash & Cauliflower Gratin
I’ve over-done foods before, but I don’t think I’ll ever get enough spaghetti squash. Or cauliflower. Knock on wood.
6. Morning Cocktail
I get that this is probably only popular because it was a giveaway post, but I’m including it because it features my daily staple – a Morning Cocktail.
5. Confessions of a Child-Free Woman
While I may have to bite my tongue at a couple of things I said (I’m quite happily sharing my food these days), this is my favorite post of 2014.
4. Banana Chocolate Chip Protein Muffins
These are my favorite breakfast muffins. I’ve done ’em with banana, plantain, and pumpkin. All good. And they freeze perfectly!
3. Marshmallow Chocolate Chip
The cottage cheese in this microwave cake warms up and makes a gooey marshmallow-like filling. Mmmmm…
2. Food Intolerance
I did really well with keeping away from the foods I learned my body is sensitive to… and then I fell of the wagon. Hard. Since I’m going to start competing again this year, I’m going to bring this back this month. It really did help!
1. Easy Oat Flatbread
This was the most popular post of 2014! And probably the easiest!
And that’s what I ate in 2014. Don’t forget to check out Jenn’s link up!

I’m beside myself excited for 2015 – it’s a year to celebrate and enjoy this crazy, unpredictable, beautiful life. ♥

That spaghetti squash and cauliflower gratin looks delicious. Need to try that and now I’m off to check out the food intolerance post. The post on having kids is still my favorite. Happy New Years!
Thanks! I’m so glad people laughed at that post. 🙂
Happy New Year! Hope you have a great time in Tahoe.
Hadn’t seen that spaghetti squash dish yet yum! I’ve enjoyed connecting with you this year and look forward to more in 2015. happy new year!
Same to you! Happy 2015!
I need to start drinking your morning junk – My cholesterol is off the chain. Genetic so nothing I’ve personally done to myself. My doctor is all worried bah. She said diet won’t help but doesn’t hurt to try and chug something that may improve it!? Great list of faves lady! Hope you and Vegas and whomever else have a wonderful New Years Eve celebration!! Happy 2015 Laura! -Iva
Doooooo it!!! It’s the best – I swear!
Ahh, now i need to go back and try all your recipes! 🙂 Happy New Year, Laura. Here’s to a great 2015!
Happy New Year to you too! Let me know if you do try anything – I love to see all the twists!
LOVE love love all your crazy food because it’s not the overly fancy things I see everywhere and know I can’t replicate!
Oh man… that’s a huge compliment. Usually I hear the opposite. Ha!
mmmm i need that cocktail.
So glad you posted this and hope you are having a rockin’ New Year’s Eve!!!! Best in 2015.
can you come live in my kitchen? all of your recipes are ridiculously good! yes, even your #strangebutgood ones! 😉
Yes… but you have to feed me latkes and custard. 😉
Have a fabulous time at Lake Tahoe.
I have loved following your blog over the past few years… way back to the roller derby and softball days!! You have kept your hilarious sense of humor and honesty, and that’s why I continue to follow your blog :). I hope you had a great NYE and I hope 2015 is amazing for you!!
Thanks Allie! I’m so glad to have gotten to know you too. It’s been fun to watch your journey. 🙂
Sometimes eating crow tastes damn good.
Most delicious crow ever. With a cherry on top.
OMG loved your Confessions of a Child-Free Woman – you’re hilarious. Never change. I love your blog!
Thanks Erin! Means a lot. 🙂
