P.S. Make sure you scroll to the bottom to see which new recipes were Natasha’s favorites this year.
There’s definitely a theme to the most popular recipes of 2022 and you’ll note most of these dishes are.
Easy – low-fuss recipes that don’t skimp on flavor
Quick – you all loved shortcuts like the Air Fryer! We all appreciate getting dinner on the table fast.
Budget-friendly – inflation hit America’s pocketbooks this year so it’s not surprising that the top recipes were also affordable options. these recipes prove you don’t have to spend a fortune to eat well.
Traditional – many of you were making recipes that are old comfort foods like Sloppy Joes and Chili. Nostalgic recipes will never go out of style.
Family Friendly – I’m pretty sure all these recipes also land in the kid-friendly category (i.e. recipes that your kids will love and actually eat). That makes me so happy as one of our core values is happy and healthy families.
Chicken chow mein is so much better than takeout! It is filled with chicken, veggies, classic chow mein noodles and the best homemade chow mein sauce. You will love this one pan dinner!
This Pan-Seared Steak has a garlic butter that makes it taste like a steakhouse quality meal. You'll be impressed at how easy it is to make the perfect steak that's seared on the outside, and perfectly tender inside.
Making Air Fryer Bacon is so EASY! Have this ready for breakfast in under 10 minutes. The bacon air-fried is crispy and crunchy and the cleanup is so easy.
This recipe for Air Fryer Baked Potato comes out perfectly every time. The skin of the potato is salty and crispy while the inside is tender and fluffy.
Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta is such a simple and quick recipe, perfect for weeknight dinners. Juicy chicken breast tossed with tender pasta in a creamy cajun garlic sauce, ready in 30 minutes.
An easy Slow Cooker chili recipe with Ground Beef, beans, tomato sauce, and the best homemade chili seasoning. It putters away in the slow cooker for the juiciest beef and rich flavor.
Beef and Broccoli is an easy, 1-pan, 30-minute meal that is loaded with fresh broccoli, tender nutrition-packed beef, and the best stir fry sauce. We love this over steamy white rice.
Our all-time favorite fish tacos recipe! These are loaded with fresh ingredients and perfectly seasoned plump fish. Don’t skip the best fish taco sauce – an irresistible garlic lime crema.
This Banana Bread Recipe is loaded with ripe bananas, tangy-sweet raisins, and toasted walnuts. It is one of our favorite ripe banana recipes and even better with overripe bananas.
Amazing homemade Meatloaf Recipe. The meatloaf is so tender and juicy on the inside with a sweet and tangy sauce that glazes the meatloaf and adds so much flavor!
Natasha’s 5 Favorite Recipes from the Year
These are the recipes that ended up on our regular rotation. There are some surprising ones that we discovered like Shishito Peppers (don’t skip the dipping sauce) that was a treat to eat and serve to company. Everyone loves trying something new and exciting and also the Roasted Potatoes that everyone kept asking for every time I shared it on Instagram and Facebook stories.
These are the most loved recipes by Natasha and her family:
Perfect roasted potatoes are melting and buttery in the middle and irresistibly crisp on the outside. This easy recipe for oven-roasted potatoes never fails to wow at dinnertime, or at the holiday table! It's a simple and flavorful side dish that the whole family loves.
This restaurant-style appetizer takes just a few minutes to make at home, and the results are amazing. Serve blistered shishito peppers with a garlicky aioli for dipping.
We have so many fabulous new recipes planned for 2023 already in addition to the 100+ new recipes in our debut cookbook (coming October 2023). It’s going to be a delicious year!

Welcome to my kitchen! I am Natasha, the blogger behind Natasha's Kitchen (since 2009). My husband and I run this blog together and share only our best, family approved and tested recipes with YOU. Thanks for stopping by! We are so happy you're here.
I’m so glad my sisters told me about your website! Every recipe I’ve tried is amazing! I look forward to trying many more especially knowing they will be great!
I’ve been watching you on you tube for awhile. Checking out your written recipes I’m so disappointed that none of them have ingredient amounts. I wouldn’t want to have to guess at how much of something to put in. So many look good.
I have missed getting your emails, posts, and recipes! Not sure why they stopped. I adopted Anna when she was 9 from an orphanage in Nizhny Novgorod (now married w/2 little boys). Would love more Ukraine and Russian recipes, especially Borscht w/beets and just beets. Do you still do video instructions and also how do I search for these videos. Blessings and thank you so very, very much for keeping my Anna’s Russian foods her childhood when she was first here. Suzan (in Charleston, SC now.)
