August 1 2022 was the 10th anniversary of The Painted Apron
I thought it would be fun to look back and see
what the top ten most popular dinner recipes were
for Take-out Tuesday
I post recipes on other days too,
but the Take-out Tuesday recipes are recipes that are
“easier than getting take out”
I post a variety of recipes for take-out Tuesday,
appetizers, side dishes and desserts
but for today’s top 10
I limited the list to just dinner recipes
The 10th most viewed is Loaded Chicken Tetrazzini
Chicken and vegetables combined with thin spaghetti
in a creamy Parmesan sauce
Prepare it up to 24 hours in advance for an easy one dish dinner
Your Slow cooker will do all the work for this #9 Taco Soup
Simple ingredients magically transform into a hearty soup
while you’re busy doing other things
Set up a buffet with various toppings
like shredded cheese, lettuce and tortilla triangles
and let everyone serve themselves
Another magical Slow Cooker soup is
#8 Cheesy Hashbrown, Sausage & Potato Soup
#7 French Onion Chicken Bubble-up is an easy weeknight dinner,
pretty much a “dump and go” type casserole…
lots of flavors and textures in this simple 6 ingredient dinner!
#6 Maple Sausage & Belgian Waffle Bake
Make this the day before and refrigerate overnight before baking
for a special breakfast or have breakfast for dinner!
#5 Chicken Gyros with Shortcut Tzatziki
the shortcut is using a purchased tzatziki sauce
{Trader Joe’s has a good one}
One of my longtime favorite recipes came in at #4
the secret is they are so easy to make!
Another good make ahead and bake later recipe
Tacos are a favorite around here
and these #3 Baked Tacos can be prepped early in day
and just popped in the oven at dinner time
Serve them with lettuce, tomatoes
and sour cream or guacamole if desired
are a great appetizer that can easily be paired
with a baked potato and a green salad for dinner
And #1 most viewed dinner recipe is
this has all the flavors of Chicken Cordon Bleu
baked with pasta into a comforting casserole
If you haven’t tried any of these I hope you’ll pin some
for the next time you need a fast and easy dinner
that’s better than take-out!
