Restaurant Mixes

The recipe club sounds like a lot of fun!! LOL @ the kitchen nuts. I'd be in the "some can't boil water" part. *smiles* The rules are great...especially the no hubbies allowed. :)

I'm starting to think I may have to do some kitchen pop-ins. *laughs*

You said that the first time around, there's to tweaking allowed. So where do you get your recipes from originally?
 
Many of us have worked in restaurants, delis, etc. I think you would enjoy our little "jam" sessions - yeah we had one of those with all homemade jams!!!

Most of the cooking is done in our own kitchens (should I tell you the story of the night - about 1 AM - we barged in on a friend's pizzeria - after they were all cleaned and ready to close - and we started cooking???) We had a blast! We brought all our own food, pans, utensils - not to use too much of the restaurants items - and we cooked up a storm! Partied till about 4 and went home - exhausted!!! But it was a kitchen big enough for a bunch of us to play in without getting into each others way! We even made "strange" pizzas - LOL! And yes - we did clean up our mess!

But after we cook we meet for lunch, coffee, whatever - or we meet at someone's house and try our concoctions. When all else fails - there are a few hubbies that would eat anything - no matter how bad it was - so it saves on excess garbage! LOL! Reminds them of college days and cooking for themselves - so they say.

But I think you would enjoy it very much - move closer!
 
What a great read. Very entertaining...and informative. ;) Thanks Mama!
 
You're welcomed! I will miss all this when I move (moving out of state) but I hope to start a nice group of kitchen loonies to have fun with! It really is a lot of fun.
 
I love to eat the salad at Olive Garden. The dressing is so delicious. I found the receipe or copycat on at least and thought I would share it.

8 oz. of Paul Newmans Vinegar and Oil Dressing
1 clove of garlic peeled and minced
1/2 teaspoon of Dried Basil
1/2 teaspoon of Dried Oregeno
3 packages of sweet n low.

Put is all in a container shake and refrid for 24 hours.
 
I have alot of copycat receipes that was emailed to me. I guess if anyone is interested I can either email it to them or I can post some of them on here. Let me know either way. I love to share recipes and find new ones.
 
I'm not exactly sure where to get those restaurant foods, but I bet you could find some answer by simply doing a couple well placed google searches.
 
Well I have a whole bunch of resturant copycat recipes if you are interested. I think there are about 50 or more. I can either post them on here or send you an email with an attachment.
