According to Google Trends, online searches for recipes have been trending up since March. That's not surprising. Food & Wine reports that Sunday appears to be the biggest day for recipe searches. And the recipe "Stay-at-Home" home cooks are searching the most? Banana bread. That makes sense. It's comforting.
Google Trend’s top 10 recipe-related searches since March 1st:
- Banana bread
- Pancake
- Chicken
- Pizza dough
- Brownie
- Crepe
- Meatloaf
- French toast
- Lasagna
- Cheesecake
The last recipe I searched and made is this French Vegetable Tian. It's a simple and delicious dish from the Provence region of France. Fun to prepare, even better to eat!
