Spring may have entered rural Montana like a lamb…we have still had several days with temps below freezing and even a fair bit of snow fall. Though none of it has really stuck around more than a day. That said we are all looking forward to a bountiful Spring as we sow the seeds and plant the plants. I have looked at the page views and stats to check out the popular recipes posts from last month. There are no surprises here – at least for me, maybe you missed one of these posts? Either way I hope you enjoy checking out the Five #MostPopularRecipes of Last Month – MAR-2026. It is a countdown, so be sure to scroll to end of this post to see #1!
#5 – Quick Kraut
When I am building sandwiches, wraps, and burgers, I am always thinking about layers. How can I layer together flavors on flavors to build the ultimate bite. I love to have a vinegary bite in most things along with something with texture. That’s why this Quick Kraut is such a good recipe to have in your recipe box.
#4 – Simple Cheese Straws
Sometimes a meal calls for an appetizer. Or, like we do at our house, need an idea for your next Appetizer Night! These Simple Cheese Straws are the perfect addition to any appetizer menu. They are light and flaky while still being cheesy. And the best part – they take only a few minutes to make and few more minutes to bake! That makes them great along side a dinner when you want something more than just garlic bread.
#3 – Quick Breakfast Wraps
Not everything named Breakfast has to be served at breakfast time. We have breakfast for lunch or dinner quite frequently. These Quick Breakfast Wraps are perfect for any meal of the day, super easy to make and a great on the go recipe. They are also really great for camping or to make ahead.
#2 – Roast Beef Spice Blend
Making my own spice blends has been a hobby of mine for some time. I really like to play around with different flavors and see how they come together. I also really like to be able to control the amount of salt, fillers and other preservatives that go into the spice blends I use in cooking. Recently I have been trying to make my own deli meats so that we have what we want to hand. In the process of that endeavor I have come up with a really great Roast Beef Spice Blend that works for making deli style meat or a Sunday Supper centerpiece.
#1 – Blackstone Cowboy Stir-Fry
I don’t usually make recipes that require a super specialized piece of cooking equipment (except maybe slow cookers), but I am so in love with my Blackstone griddle, I can’t help it. For the most part the other things I have made thus far can be made on the stove top, however this Blackstone Cowboy Stir-Fry really does the need the wide open flat space of the griddle. It is a total game changer for making meals like this for the whole family at once. By the by – this is not an ad for Blackstone products at all – my hubs got me one for my birthday this year and I just love it so very much.
I hope you have enjoyed looking back on the Five Most Popular Recipes from March 2026. Was there one that you missed?
