-gigisdiamonds

-emily hauer

-HillaryDVM
"I have made this over 100 times and have shared the recipe with many."

“This breakfast sausage, with multiple variations, will be your new favorite breakfast protein because it tastes even better than the store-bought kind!”

-AltoRose

-EmKenBken
Don't miss the Chick-fil-A sauce.
"I've searched a long time and now I have my favorite sauce. I had ribs in the Crock Pot and I simmered my sauce for 40 minutes. I then poured some of it on my ribs and let it keep simmering with the ribs. Thirty minutes later the ribs were done and the sauce's ingredients had married nicely."
-inabsentia

Now you can put as much guac as you want on your burrito.
Taco Bell showed the world that tacos + Doritos = heaven.
"My trick to this cheesecake is to purchase bananas three weeks in advance. Yes, I said it: three weeks in advance. If the bananas are not black on the outside and mushy in the middle, then they are not ready."
