And put on grilled pineapple.

I wish I could count the many times I've made Mrslarkin's Green Goddess Dressing http://food52.com/recipes/4372-green-goddess-dressing-or-ramp-tramp-dressing and I'm going home to make more tonight! also her Balsamic Butterscotch Sauce is about to become a family fave.

sorry - one more:

though I do make a lighter version

oh, and AJ's mushrooms bordelaise!

I tend to go through phases and forget about old favorites and then come back to them so this is a great exercise to remind me! I love monkey mom's ma-po tofu and thirschfeld's veal truck stop stew, too

and a variation on this:

this one was a dinner staple for the last couple of winters - very, very easy!

I made lapadia's Jalapeño-Apple Slaw for the first time last weekend to take to a picnic. It was so amazing that I ate a bowl for breakfast, and thankfully kept a bit aside before leaving. Thank heaven I did, because there wasn't a shred left. It was the hit of the party! It's my new go-to for slaw from now on. http://food52.com/recipes/8746-jalapeno-apple-slaw-with-honey-lime-vinaigrette

Last summer, I must have made wssmom's watermelon gazpacho 2 dozen times - each time with a little twist. It's a great recipe for the hot summer daze: http://food52.com/recipes/12953-pretty-in-pink-watermelon-gazpacho

Another question reminded me of this -- made changes in herbs, added some mustard, whatever I've done to this dressing, it's wonderful and keeps well. http://food52.com/recipes/17417-grilled-steak-and-mango-salad-with-avocado-buttermilk-ranch-dressing

Boulangere's Roasted vegetable spanish rice is the top most recipe that immediately comes to mind.. Its become a regular dish at home, my husband LOVES it!

I make Pierino's Duck Ragu.

Also, I asked the same question last year, seeking "Hidden Treasures," which could include Community Picks that have been sort of forgotten. http://food52.com/hotline/9222-please-share-your-hidden-treasures-on-food52-recipes-you-make-often-or-tried-and-plan-to-make-aga A lot of great ideas in that thread! ;o)

Great question, Bevi! I've been enjoying seeing everyone else's responses, and have saved a few to try soon. ;o)

I love Thirschfeld's Schnitzel a la Holstein--I make it whenever I feel like I need a hug.
Mrs.Larkin's Royal Wedding Scones and also Zucchini Currant scones.
Mtlabor's Indian-Spiced Lentils is a great staple. Great for when I'm in a pinch or need to pull out a meal with pantry ingredients.
All of the bread recipes from Boulangere have worked for me. I loved the Lavender Thyme bread-I've only made it once, but it was lovely and made a really nice french toast stuffed with meyer lemon curd next day.

I've got a few to add to the list.
I'm pretty much addicted to lapadia's spaghetti and broccoli. I tend to make it with whole wheat spaghetti so add more pasta water, and I cook about 3/4 of the garlic with the onions, and only add 1/4 with the lemon zest and red pepper because I use about 3 to 3.5 T of minced garlic! http://food52.com/recipes/6193-spaghetti-broccoli

Gingerroot's manapua are one of my favorite lunch dishes. I've made multiple filling variations, including a breakfast one with soft scrambled eggs & Spanish chorizo. I've also done the duck version with pulled pork. http://food52.com/recipes/12427-savory-duck-buns-aka-kalua-manapua

Beyond Celery's coconut-lemon macaroons are delicious as well as gluten-free and vegan! Really!!! http://food52.com/recipes/14717-coconut-lemon-macaroons

meggrimes Tempting Tempeh and Green Beans. It's a really yummy vegan entrée, and a great introduction to using tempeh. http://food52.com/recipes/18649-tempting-tempeh-and-green-beans

DirectHeat's Pale Ale Pork Tenderloin. I cook a lot of pork tenderloin on the grill, and this is one of the tastiest versions I've found. http://food52.com/recipes/18642-pale-ale-pork-loin-for-the-grill

Ditto on lapadia's pita and boulangere's harvest bread. And mrslarkin's chubby chocolate chip cookies. Check out her truly scrumptious apple pie: http://food52.com/recipes/6732-truly-scrumptious-apple-pie

pierino's allez 'zpacho! (Some of these are community picks, but they don't get much play.)

These lemon bars are wonderful, and the recipe makes a huge amount if you have to bring cookies to a function: http://food52.com/recipes/7853-the-tangiest-lemon-bars

Blue Kale Road's broccoli apple soup--I make it constantly. http://food52.com/recipes/11904-broccoli-apple-soup

Nicole Franzen's lentil salad is one of my favorite lunches: http://food52.com/recipes/6236-lemon-thyme-lentils-with-mesclun-greens

I think this won a wildcard, but it's one of my go-to recipes: http://food52.com/recipes/10517-brown-rice-jambalaya-ish

This pot pie recipe: http://food52.com/recipes/6697-harvest-chicken-pot-pie

I'll just mention A Whole Lotta Caponata from Cupcake 921.

wssmom's Time Machine Butterscotch Pudding is a favorite in our house: http://food52.com/recipes/9718-time-machine-butterscotch-pudding

Great question! There are probably a dozen or so. Monkeymom's CrissCross Panfried Eggplant is one.

Here are a few others. I've been using Paprika on my iPad, hung on its nice Belkin rack mounted on the end of a convenient kitchen cabinet, so I'll check that and update this when I have time tonight or tomorrow night.

BlueKaleRoad's Cranberry and Walnut Bread is very easy to put together and is delicious! (http://food52.com/recipes/15195-cranberry-walnut-bread)

Speaking of chicken soups, my daughter raves about this one: http://food52.com/recipes/970-curried-chicken-noodle-soup

Okay, here are a few of my favorites. I am sure that I will think of more:

AJ's Gingerbread Bars with Hard Sauce Glaze (http://food52.com/recipes/14644-gingerbread-bars-with-hard-sauce-glaze) I make these every Christmas as part of my holiday baking.

Mrslarkin's Chubby Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies (http://food52.com/recipes/9209-chubby-chewy-chocolate-chip-cookies). I cannot believe that this recipe has never been a CP or a finalist! These are family favorites.

We also love boulangere's One Night in Florence pasta dish!

Monkeymom's Criss Cross Panfried Eggplant (http://food52.com/recipes/4199-criss-cross-pan-fried-eggplant) This eggplant dish is positively addictive!

Thai Red Curry Chicken Soup by Meatballs&Milkshakes --- terrific! Have made it with shrimp, and added all sorts of veggies, as well. It is especially nice with broccolini and/or chunks of cabbage.

Garlic Scape Pesto by OfBaking has become a template for all sorts of pesto-like concoctions.

Some of mine - sdebrango's Texas chocolate cake is now a family favorite:
http://food52.com/recipes/14526-texas-chocolate-cake
Miss Ginsu's chow chow - I can big batches and then my neighbor takes it all :-)
http://food52.com/recipes/424-spicy-green-tomato-chow-chow

Food Blogga's pignoli cookies are SO good:
http://food52.com/recipes/3751-italian-pignoli-pine-nut-cookies

hardlikearmour's shrimp and lentils are absolutely to DIE for:
http://food52.com/recipes/19157-shrimp-with-french-lentils-and-roasted-tomato-vinaigrette

Okay...off the top of my head. Boulangere-Hearty Harvest Bread, Bevi-Chicken Kievs, HLA-Danish Kringle, MadisonMayberry-Vegetarian Black Bean Burger, Susan g-Judy's Deli Slaw. Many more...

Oh wow, stay tuned...it's getting late!

Lapadia's pita breads!

christinasciarra's Key Lime Tarts as an 11" tart is great as well.

Ribollita by la domestique, Borrachos by lastnightsdinner, Turkey Meatloaf by apartmentcooker, Liptauer by AntoniaJames, Tomato Bisque by TheWearyEpicurean, Mushroom Ramen by thirschfeld, Strawberry Shrub (actually all of them) by hardlikearmour, and Salmon Papillotes w/ Red Peppercorns by Babette’s Feast are recipes that I've made multiple times. There are so many good ones here!

Shout out to B's First Night in Florence Spaghetti. My son and daughter make it as well.

Lapadia's slaw is tremendous, I also love her pita bread recipe. I have made your winter salad with crisp leeks and it's wonderful and open to variation. I'm sure I'll think of more.
