Your most-loved meals of 2024
Anyone for a second helping of 2024?
Counting down your most-cooked of the year is a job we take so seriously, we insist on taste-testing every meal that makes the cut. Again.
By tracking the meals you put on the plate, we learned that Centr meals mean so much more to you than simply workout fuel. You kept you coming back for:
Classic comfort food
Reset and gut health
High-protein gains
Low-ingredient heroes
Social media saves
Low-carb benefits
Time-saving meal prep
Luckily, there’s still time for you to put all of these recipes to the test (again) before the year is out, too! Save your faves and get cooking.
Classic comfort food
Some meals fuel goals. These meals fuel feel-good vibes (and goals on the side).
