The 6 Recipes Our Readers Clicked On Most in July

Summer has a way of moving quickly once the 4th of July hits, and I have to admit this year feels faster than usual. Between travel plans and gatherings with family and friends, time’s flying! Do you feel the same? 

We can tell that during the rush of summer, you took time to make delicious meals and treats for your families. And your favorite recipes on Simply Recipes this past month were very much a celebration of peak summer. It’s no surprise that produce-driven treats like peach pie bars topped the list. In between all the summer fun, though, dinner still needs to get on the table, so quick meals like meatloaf and egg stir-fry made the list, too.

Here are the 6 recipes you clicked on most in July.

1. Old Bay Seasoning

This copycat Old Bay seasoning recipe allows you to control the salt level to your liking while still remaining true to the flavors of the yellow, red, and blue tin. 

2. Peach Pie Bars

Nothing against peach pie, but these bars are way easier and just as rewarding. Plus, they pack up nicely for picnics and potlucks and don’t even require plates and forks for eating. 

3. The Quickest and Easiest Meatloaf

This humble meatloaf takes just 10 minutes to get in the oven and is infinitely adaptable. Try steak sauce instead of ketchup, and soy sauce instead of Worcestershire.

4. Oreo Ice Cream Cake

This show-stopping ice cream cake is a bit of a project, but one that you’ll deem worth it after just a bite. It’s the ultimate way to end a summer cookout with family and friends.

5. Tomato Egg

This classic Chinese stir-fry is as simple as it sounds and extremely satisfying. Use the best tomatoes you can find and serve them over rice.

6. Lumpia Shanghai

The best part about these crispy Filipino fried egg rolls is that they can be stored in the freezer uncooked, to be fried on demand for gatherings or even quick weeknight dinners.
