I woke up this morning to find this in my Inbox:
Yep, my dessert pesto made it into the Foodbuzz Top 9 today!
In honor of that (and because my planned dinner recipe for last night got put on hold when our neighbors invited us over for a impromptu cookout!), I thought I’d post my own Top 9 favorite recipes from Savvy Eats…and give you a chance to win some Savvy Goodies!
In no particular order, my favorite recipes thus far are…
1. Dessert Pesto. Looks just like regular pesto, but uses mint in place of basil, white chocolate in place of garlic, etc!
2. Maple Peanut Dessert Hummus. Apparently, I like to make dessert versions of traditionally savory dips!
3. Monster Pasta. Thick, creamy and vegan!
4. Thai Peanut Stir Fry. A favorite stand by. Why has it been so long since I made this?
5. Breakfast Quinoa Balls … Breakfast quinoa on the go! Readers have offered some fantastic variations and recipe tweaks in the comments section as well!
6. Risotto Cakes. A perfect special occasion dish!
7. Pear and Spinach Salad with Blueberry Vinaigrette. Love how the sweetness of the pears ties in with the fruity vinaigrette!
8. Garlic Vegetable Couscous. One of my first garden-fresh meals, using one of my favorite products: Garlic Gold!
9. Chai Tea Scones. My maid of honor made these for my bridal shower, and they were a hit!
Want to win some Savvy Scones for yourself? Leave a comment below telling me which of these 9 recipes is YOUR favorite! I’ll pick a winner tomorrow morning!

ALL of your creations always look amazing.
I really want to try your chai tea scones, and the dessert pesto.
Risotto cakes and I could be BFF!
The dessert pesto is so creative and looks great too! Scones take close second.
Ahhhhhh!! That is great! I happen to LOVE the scones, but I haven’t been able to eat any since I found out I had a gluten intolerance. But maybe a GF version of these scones would be lovely.
As always, EVERYTHING always looks amazing on your site! I’m looking forward to some gardening tips from you when I finally move into our new house.
The hummus… hands down!! Love your ingenuity!
The Thai Peanut stir fry recipe looks so good! I love Thai food but have not had it in a long time. I may just have to test that one out!

THe dessert pesto, it’s a very unique idea!
Maple Peanut Hummus for sure–Maple and Peanut butter is one of me fave food combos
Ahh, this is such a tough one! Especially since I just made your delicious Quinoa Balls. I’m going to have to go with the *Monster Pasta* now, though, because it looks so insanely good!

My favorite is the monster pasta! Congrats on making the Top 9.
Those quinoa balls sound delicious and a nice change to breakfast!
Congrats, Julie! You deserve it . Your creativity & witty writing style is much desired
