It’s actually happening—TikTok’s days are numbered. I’ll be spending the next few days downloading all the videos I can’t bear to lose, and second to edits (no judgement, please), recipes represent the biggest chunk of videos in my saved folders. Throughout TikTok’s reign, there have been countless recipes that have taken the world—and our kitchen—by storm. We’ve created recipes for countless viral moments (looking at you, baked feta pasta and green goddess salad), and have taken inspiration from well-loved ideas to make our own Delish versions (if you haven’t tried our dalgona martini yet, now’s the time). So, in these final days, we’re taking a moment to say goodbye to all of the recipes that we wouldn’t be the same without. 😭
Maybe you’ve got a case of nostalgia and want to revisit the recipes that had the entire world in a chokehold, or you want to actually make the recipes you watched for hours on end. Either way, keep reading on for all of our TikTok-faves.
Dirty Martini Pasta
This pasta first went viral on TikTok when chef Emily Eggers shared her recipe for an olive brine and gin-spiked spaghetti. We haven’t been so excited about a TikTok recipe since the iconic baked feta pasta. So naturally, we ran to our kitchens to make our own version.
Get the Dirty Martini Pasta recipe.
Dalgona Coffee
Dalgona coffee started as a TikTok trend, and quickly became a staple in our kitchens. All you need is instant coffee, sugar, and water (and a little elbow grease!) to make this fluffy, perfectly sweetened caffeine treat. Can't get enough? Upgrade to our dalgona martini.
Get the Dalgona Coffee recipe.
TikTok Green Goddess Salad
Melissa Ben-Ishay is maybe best known as the creator of Baked By Melissa, a cupcake company known for their adorable mini cupcakes that come in dozens of flavors; however, some of you may know her as the creator of the most viral salad on the Internet.
Get the TikTok Green Goddess Salad recipe.
Sushi Bake
Recipes only go viral when they’re incredibly good or laughably bad, and this sushi bake falls firmly at the top of the “incredibly good” list. This easy casserole (because, let's be honest, that’s what this is) is the perfect entry point for trying your hand at making sushi at home or introducing sushi to picky kiddos.

Baked Feta Pasta
Obviously roasting a block of feta with bursting tomatoes is going to be amazing, but is it good enough to break TikTok like this one did? Our answer, begrudgingly, is yes. It's genius—super easy, but fancy enough for date night. 😍

TikTok Ramen
This amazing dinner hack brings us back to college. Have fun customizing the noodles with your favorite veggies and toppings. Our top tip? Don't skip the everything bagel seasoning—just trust us.

Yogurt Toast
This TikTok number has taken breakfast tables by storm, and for good reason. It involves topping bread with a shortcut egg-yogurt “custard” to create a slightly sweet, fancy-ish dessert with barely any effort. The choices of toppings are ripe for your imagination. (FYI, Team Delish favors a bit of chocolate in the custard 😉)
Get the Yogurt Toast recipe.
Cheesy Frico Fried Egg Tostadas
We tried (and loved) the viral feta fried eggs, which led us to create our own version: cheesy frico fried egg tostadas. Featuring a base of crispy caramelized cheddar and pepper Jack cheese and a zesty pico de gallo topping, these cheesy frico fried egg tostadas will surpass your wildest breakfast expectations
One-Pot French Onion Pasta
We’re big fans of one-pot pasta recipes and French onion soup-flavored everything, so it was just a matter of time until we tried our hand at this viral recipe. Meet this one-pot French onion soup pasta, which is destined to become one of your favorite weeknight dinners.
Get the One-Pot French Onion Pasta recipe.
Blended Baked Oats
The true genius behind this method is the blending of the oats to create a powder that resembles flour. This allows the baked result to feel more cake than breakfast, while still providing all the benefits of having a bowl of oats in the morning.
Get the Blended Baked Oats recipe.
TikTok Salmon Rice Bowl
I'm sure you've seen Emily Mariko's viral TikTok, making what has to be one of the best looking, healthy lunches I have ever seen. We had to try it for ourselves, and safe to say—it's as good as everyone says.
Get the TikTok Salmon Rice Bowl recipe.
Pillsbury Sugar Cookie Hacks
TikTok can't get enough of Pillsbury sugar cookies, and frankly neither can we. We love these cookies all on their own, but we also love incorporating them into fun, creative desserts like in our mini Pillsbury cookie cheesecakes or Pillsbury stacked sugar cookies.
Cowboy Caviar
Cowboy caviar of course didn't originate on TikTok, but when @brialem shared her recipe, suddenly the whole world was making this classic snack. Cowboy caviar is all about ease, so feel free to experiment (our cowboy caviar couscous salad is a great next step).
Get the Cowboy Caviar recipe.
Pasta Chips
You've heard of toasted ravioli, and now it's time to learn about pasta chips! These are the perfect thing to dip in a bowl of warm marinara and snack away. Thanks TikTok!
Get the Pasta Chips recipe.
Pesto Egg-In-A-Hole
We can't believe we never thought to swap out our cooking oil of choice for pesto before! It makes SO much sense—once heated, the basil, pine nuts, and Parm in pesto fry up crispy and nutty, deepening their earthy flavors. Combine that with the perfection of an egg in a hole, and you’ve got yourself a special, next-level breakfast that comes together fast.
Get the Pesto Egg-In-A-Hole recipe.
