Okay, let's break it down! For starters, those who are a fan of the fast-food giant McDonald's probably recognize the number one spot on this list—the Grimace Shake. It's a purple berry milkshake that was made to celebrate the birthday of one of the most popular McDonald's characters who was first introduced in 1971.
Up next, Lasagna Soup! This is one of the Drummond family's go-to weeknight dinners. It's a comforting twist on lasagna that includes all the staple ingredients—noodles, ricotta, sausage, and tomatoes—in soup form! And it can be on the table in less than an hour.
Wondering what Chicken Cobbler might be? This is another TikTok favorite that combines chicken pot pie with a biscuit topping to make a savory cobbler that's all sorts of comforting. This one we'll definitely add to our winter dinner lineup.
Coming in at number four is both a recipe and a new Hulu TV series! The show Black Cake gets its name from a popular Caribbean dessert that's made with warm spices and studded with liquor-soaked dried fruits, and popular around Christmastime.
Calling all reality TV fans! Here's another one inspired by the small screen. The Pumptini is one of the top picks for those who follow Bravo's Vanderpump Rules. It's a citrusy martini recipe made with vodka, raspberries, grapefruit juice, and orange liqueur.
Speaking of cocktails, the Hugo Spritz is a popular drink that's extra refreshing. It's made with St-Germain, mint, prosecco, and soda water.
At number seven, you'll find one of Ree Drummond's favorite accompaniments for steak: Cowboy Butter! She made this herby compound butter to top bacon-wrapped filets for her hubby Ladd on their anniversary. Talk about a dinner that’ll melt your heart!
Now, let's talk Coronation Quiche. Those who tuned in to the coronation of King Charles III will remember the popular quiche recipe that they chose for the celebration. It had spinach, fava beans, and fresh tarragon.
Another drink made the list of trending searches! This time it's Brazilian Lemonade. The beverage is actually made with limes (not lemons), sugar, water, and sweetened condensed milk. It’s all blended together with ice for a creamy, refreshing drink.
Last but not least, it's a nod to the popular cottage cheese trend. This old-school product made a comeback in a big way on TikTok with new ways of using cottage cheese, including Cottage Cheese Ice Cream, which is a healthy twist on dessert.
