Simply Recipes

Another blog with beautiful photography, Simply Recipes is the personal site of Elise Bauer "with only a few hundred recipes, all tested by me, my family and or my friends."
Simply Recipes now reaches over a million visitors a month and was recently voted Best Food Blog Overall in the 2006 Food Blog Awards. "What started as a small family project now reaches tens of thousands of people every day."

Chocolate & Zucchini

(http://www.chocolateandzucchini.com/)
Despite my hatred of zucchini, I thoroughly enjoy this blog. It is written by Clotilde Dusoulier, a Parisian woman who lives in Montmartre and shares her passion for all things food related; recipes, musings, cookbook acquisitions, quirky products, nifty tools, restaurant experiences, ideas, and inspirations. Two books have been created from this blog and there will probably be more forthcoming.
