Hey! Remember how much fun we had last week during the first-ever Bon Appétit Readers' Choice Week? Every morning on Facebook and Twitter, we asked for your help in creating a brand-new recipe. You talked, we listened, we cooked…and now we're delivering: From an earthy wheat berry pilaf to a spicy chile-infused cocktail, here are the official, brand-new, totally awesome recipes.

    Mushroom and Wheat Berry Pilaf with Yogurt

    To kick things off on Meatless Monday, we asked: Should we create a dish that featured greens, broccoli, carrots, or mushrooms? You chose mushrooms, so we whipped up this nutty pilaf with porcini, shiitake, crimini, and maitake mushrooms.

    Trout Salad with Citrus and Radishes

    For Healthy Tuesday, we wanted to know: Chicken or fish? You voted fish, and from there, this light salad with oranges, herbs, radishes, and pan-seared trout became a (delightful) reality.

    The Nellie Kuh

    Turns out, you love Friday Happy Hour as much as we do: The first drink you inspired us to create had rye, orange blossom water, and lime. And so we named it after the reader who suggested it, Nellie Kuh. Thanks, Nellie!

    The Mary Chapman

    We also mixed up a cocktail with gin, lemongrass, and a Thai chile (it hurts so good). Thanks, Mary Chapman!
