I Tried These 11 Pinterest Recipes And You Should, Too

When I'm really bored I tend to get sucked into the black hole that is Pinterest. And after 30 minutes spent on the website I've effectively planned my wedding, found 10 DIY projects to try the next time I'm feeling crafty, and pinned at least a dozen outfits to my fashion inspiration board. On top of all that, I always see recipes that look delicious. Yet, I always wonder if they are as good as they look. So, I tried 11 of these Pinterest recipes, and here's what I thought.

Buffalo Chicken Pasta Bake

Like eating buffalo chicken dip but only heartier. This was such an easy recipe, prepped and ready within 30 minutes. Perfect for anyone who wants to turn this well-loved party dip into a full meal.

Ranch Cheddar Chicken

I tried this recipe when I had literally nothing in my refrigerator except chicken (the consequences of being a poor college student). Also, an easy recipe to make took only 20 minutes. Very reminiscent of Parmesan chicken.

Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies

I haven't really had a chocolate chip cookie that I haven't liked, so my opinion may seem slightly biased, but these were seriously some of the best ones I've ever had. One of my favorite things about chocolate chip cookies is the brown sugar, and this recipe is especially heavy on brown sugar. The blogger also varies the number of chocolate chips for "chocoholics" and those who want to tone down on the chocolate chip amount.

Chicken Broccoli Alfredo Pasta

This was sooooo good. Cheesy creamy pasta with chicken and broccoli creates an entire meal in one dish.

Roasted Brussesl Sprouts

Brussels sprouts are supposed to be the dreaded food of children everywhere, whose parents won't let them leave the table until they've eaten every single one. But these Brussels sprouts, roasted in honey and balsamic vinegar, are so savory.
