Happy January! Some of us look forward to the start of a new year...others of us (ahem, me) tend to slog through January already out of energy and good intentions. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜‚

Never fear! I have 10 amazing recipes for you to make as you endure this month. Each one of these recipes makes me very happy. I hope you love them!

This chicken dumpling soup (loaded with veggies!) is hearty, wholesome and so incredibly delicious!

Sharon says: So yummy! I thought this was going to be complicated but it turned out so easy and delicious! Definitely a keeper. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A family favorite for years, these delicious, soft and fluffy healthy applesauce oat muffins are low in sugar and packed with whole grains.

Erica says: My kids' favorite breakfast! Fast, easy, simple, and so good! We make these at least once per week. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hearty steel cut oats are SO easy (and fast) in the Instant Pot, and this Instant Pot banana bread steel cut oats recipe is healthy and so delicious!

Anne says: Sooooo good!!!!! Topped with blueberries and walnuts, what a treat! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This versatile Chicken Tortilla Soup is both amazing and delicious.

Cathy says: I am really picky about chicken tortilla soup and this recipe is great. I have made it numerous times in the Instant Pot. It's the only recipe I use. Be sure to add ALL the suggested toppings. Thanks Mel! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

These egg muffins freeze great for a make-ahead breakfast, snack or quick lunch!

Lisa says: This is my favorite grab-and-go breakfast. I always double the recipe, then have them ready in the freezer. I love that the recipe is very adaptable depending on what I have on hand–for my latest batch, I used ground sausage in place of the ham, shredded zucchini instead of spinach, and pepper jack cheese instead of feta. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

These easy sheet pan chicken fajitas are packed with smoky, zesty flavors and are so, so simple to make! A perfect weeknight (or any night) meal!

Stephanie says: This recipe was so good! I think it was just about the best tasting thing I have made myself. Will be making this often. We ate them with cilantro lime rice in fresh flour tortillas. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

These no-bake peanut butter cups are amazing. Like, really amazing. With a short list of ingredients, they are fast and delicious (and also vegan, gluten- and tree nut-free!).

Angie says: These are dangerous!! My absolute weakness is Chocolate and Peanut Butter and these are SO GOOD. I think I might prefer these over the real thing! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

No fuss and completely delicious, this stew is packed with flavor (and tender, fall-apart meat), and it is easy as can be to make.

Madison says: I've made this a couple times now and it's delicious. I love that the IP makes it pretty hands off. It's so nice not having to babysit dinner as it cooks! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

These healthy yogurt oat blueberry muffins have no refined sugar and are packed with whole grains – yet they still manage to be fluffy and so tasty.

Mazy says: This is my go to muffin recipe! I make them all the time because there is very little flour and no sugar just honey. My preference is a mix of chocolate and white chips. The whole family loves them. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This creamy chicken gnocchi soup is one of our family's favorite soups of all time! This new, streamlined recipe makes it easier than ever!

Natalie says: This soup is soooo good! Followed recipe exactly. First time we've had gnocchi and my 3 year old daughter helped me make it. She called it "snowman soup" because she thought the gnocchi looked like little snowmen. Thanks again for a wonderful meal! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If you have any favorite recipes you are making this month, be sure and send them to me! I love getting new recipes!
