I'm not exactly tagging my food posts but I do save them to memories.
P.S. I also write menuplease under an alias - it's carried by a local online news website - and I do tag those entries.

cool...duly added a link to your Recipes listed in your memories. That's neat that your reviews get picked up by your local news site.

Of all of the above, which one or two stand out in your mind?

#3 Spicy Cumin Lamb Shoulder Chops

That's my favorite so far this year. I've made it several times now. It's quick and easy to make and tastes wonderful. My boyfriend still gushes over it whenever I make it.

And I think I'll be making last night's Mixed Bean Salad with Sun-Dried Tomatoes (#31) again because it's easy, doesn't require any cooking (useful on hot days), and can sit in the fridge and provide something to munch on whenever we're hungry in between meals too.
