There’s a story about how Art Elkind, a chemical engineer, sold hot dogs when unable to find work during the Great Depression. So he started selling hot dogs and chili from a pushcart until someone suggested he combine the two. And just like that, the Chili Dog was invented. Of […]

Olive Garden Chicken Scampi Recipe
Olive Garden Chicken Scampi Pasta is made with a creamy garlic white wine sauce with lemon, bell peppers, and chicken. Olive Garden dishes are some of my favorites to prepare at home because they’re all so delicious but I have to feed a family of four, so it can get […]
Dairy Queen Blizzard Review
Dairy Queen is famous for its Blizzards, and it’s not hard to understand why. The soft-serve ice cream texture is melt-in-your-mouth delicious, and with all the candy add-ins, you can create your dream dessert on the go. I enjoy a nice chilled Blizzard with a side of fries during a […]
Pizza Hut Breadsticks Recipe
Pizza Hut Breadsticks are the perfect counterpart to pizza. Buttery, chewy, and loaded with seasonings, you could almost pass up the pizza and load up on breadsticks alone. I know I’ve done this a time or two. If you’re going to skip the pizza anyway, why not make the breadsticks […]
Burger King Chicken Nuggets Review
Chicken nuggets are a staple item for most fast-food restaurants, so how does Burger King stay ahead of the game- or at least on par with its competitors? Occasionally, the franchise changes its recipe – I’ve noticed a change in shape, size, and flavor over the years. But now BK […]
Taco Bell Baja Blast Freeze Review
Freezes are frozen slushies made with various sodas available at Taco Bell. Through the years, there have been many flavors – the “Kickstart” Freezes were developed as breakfast-themed or late-night-themed drinks; the “Game Fuel” Freezes tie in with video game releases and promotions; international flavors are region-specific; and there is […]
Jack in the Box Taco Sauce Recipe
Jack in the Box beef Tacos are some of our favorite fast food tacos because of their flavor and greasiness. And let’s be honest, sometimes, we just want a greasy midnight snack, regardless of nutrition. We work hard so we’re allowed, right? We shared a recipe recently for making your […]
Taco Bell Steak Quesadilla Review
Taco Bell’s menu seems to always improve, minus the time they discontinued my favorite 7 Layer Burrito. By mixing the same base ingredients into different combinations, and giving them a Tex Mex twist, they’ve remained at the top of the fast-food game. The franchise offers three types of quesadillas, but […]
Jack in the Box Beef Tacos Recipe
Jack in the Box Beef Tacos make the perfect late-night snack, especially when you can buy 2 for $1! That’s a hard deal to pass up, unless of course, you can make them yourself. We have a great recipe for making your own Jack in the Box Beef Tacos from […]
Sonic Slushes Review
We all know Sonic boasts more than 1,063,953 drink combinations between their fountain drinks and slush flavors. But that’s far too many to sample in a lifetime, so for the sake of this post, we’ll just mention that there are 21 basic Sonic Slush flavors (could vary by location) that […]
Dairy Queen Ice Cream Cake Recipe
This Copycat Dairy Queen Ice Cream Cake has layers of chocolate and vanilla ice cream with a center made of chocolate cookies and chocolate fudge – true to the Dairy Queen original. While this may not be a complicated recipe, it does take a lot of time. Plan to make […]
Longhorn Steakhouse Mac and Cheese Review
Mac and Cheese is a pretty simple recipe that most of us have only enjoyed from a packaged box. Not that I’m complaining- I grew up eating mac n’ cheese every hot summer day between swimming in the pool and sucking on artificially-flavored popsicles, and now I’m a perfectly healthy, […]
