Not only does this decadent bacon recipe come together with just 5 minutes of hands-on time, but it requires just five ingredients as well.

Ready in just 35 minutes, this chicken dinner is so delicious it's been known to inspire marriage proposals. Plus, it perfectly marries together the flavors of all of the ingredients for one impressive dish.
Texas Trash Pie
From the Royer family, the owners of Royers Round Top Café in Round Top, Texas, this pie combines the best flavors of both salty and sweet. We like serving with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
Tennessee Onions
When we published this recipe, it became an instant favorite, and it's easy to see why. With cheese, onions, and butter on the ingredient list, how could it not be good?
Husband's Delight
Think of this creamy, cheesy casserole as a deconstructed lasagna that's sure to delight your hungry family members. You'll know it's ready to come out of the oven when the top layer of cheese is bubbling.
Classic Deviled Eggs
Always a classic, and welcome at any occasion in the South, it's no surprise that deviled eggs have landed on our list of most popular recipes for another year. Our only suggestion is that you may want to double this recipe.
Hashbrown Casserole
We love a versatile recipe, and this casserole that can be served for any occasion and at any time of day is just that.
Hummingbird Cake
This beautiful and delicious layer cake became an instant classic when it was first published in a 1978 issue of Southern Living and has remained wildly popular ever since.
Best Homemade Macaroni And Cheese
It's no surprise that since we consider this our best recipe for making homemade mac and cheese that it beat out all of the others for the most popular.
Pumpkin Bundt Cake
When fall baking season came around, this pumpkin Bundt cake quickly became our most popular cake recipe. From the recipe box of baker Molly Bolton's grandmother, this cake is sure to become a family favorite.
Pineapple Casserole
Perhaps one of the easiest casserole recipes of all time, Pineapple Casserole remains popular not only because of its unique taste, but also its simplicity and short ingredient list.
Southern Cornbread Dressing
While cornbread dressing is of course a staple at Thanksgiving, the classic dish also makes an appearance year-round during suppertime in the South.
Chocolate Delight
Even if we don't all agree on the name of this decadent chocolate dessert, one thing we can all agree on is that it's delicious.
King Ranch Chicken Casserole
Whether for a potluck or a weeknight dinner, you can't go wrong serving this Tex-Mex dish. Though this casserole is pretty easy to make, you can make it even easier by using rotisserie chicken.
Watergate Salad
We love when retro recipes make a comeback and Watergate salad definitely had a shining moment in 2023. Pistachio-flavored instant pudding mix is the key ingredient to give it the perfect green hue.
Homestyle Ground Beef Casserole
This casserole is guaranteed to become a staple in your weeknight dinner rotation if it's not already. It starts with a pound of ground beef and can also be made ahead.
Cheese Dreams
These cheesy bites are the ultimate appetizer for busy hosts because you can stash them in the freezer and pull them out whenever you're entertaining. Plus, you can never go wrong when cheese and bread are on the ingredient list.
Old-School Squash Casserole
In our opinion, the best way to enjoy squash is in casserole form. That means there's plenty of cheese and a crunchy cracker topping.
