10. The Bear spaghetti

Despite being set in a sandwich shop, the notecard recipe for family meal spaghetti from The Bear lit up the internet this year. It includes 10 garlic cloves, basil steeped in oil, and 2 28-ounce cans of San Marzano tomatoes. (You know why.)

9. Bella Hadid sandwich

After she posted on TikTok about sharing a sandwich on a hike with her friend, the internet basically begged for Bella Hadid’s sandwich recipe. She obliged with another video with the ingredients for the Italian-style turkey sub loaded with condiments.

8. Grinder sandwich

Another viral TikTok sandwich that made the internet search rounds in 2022 was the grinder. Popularized in New England, the sub sandwich is packed with meats, cheeses, a ton of thin-sliced veggies, and topped with a creamy shredded lettuce salad.

7. Jennifer Aniston salad

Though the Friends star told Elle.com that this isn’t the salad she ate on the set of the show, it was still a top trending search in 2022. With bulgar wheat, quinoa, diced cucumbers, red onion, chickpeas, feta, mint, and lemon juice, it looks delish.

6. Green goddess salad

Surprisingly, the salad dressing recipe heard round the world (AKA Nora Ephron’s recipe via Olivia Wilde) did not make Google’s list in 2022. However, green goddess salad did thanks to Baked By Melissa’s recipe that went viral on TikTok.

The perfect date night dish to make them pop the question, it’s no surprise that this recipe was one of the top trending searches in 2022. The tuscan-style chicken recipe is apparently so good, you may just want to marry it.

2. Cincinnati chili

Served over spaghetti noodles with diced onions and topped with a mountain of shredded cheese, Cincinnati chili is a cultural phenomenon that spiked in popularity in 2022. But, the real question is: do you make the chili with or without beans?

1. Sugo

I’ll be honest here and say I didn’t know what this recipe was exactly until Google told me. Basically, this list starts where it ends — with traditional Italian tomato sauce. (Just let Carmy know if you find any cash in your tomato cans.)
