13 Delicious Copycat Recipes

I love going out to eat. I could probably eat out 5 nights a week if it wouldn’t affect our wallets or our waistlines. Dave and the kids enjoy eating out too and are always just as happy to eat at a restaurant as I am. Recently I was at a library book sale and I came across a copycat restaurant recipes book. I flipped through it and was so excited about the recipes I dropped it in my basket and purchased it that evening.

I’ve flipped through the book many times since and I’ve been pinning copycat recipes as I come across them and thought it would be fun to put together a collection of the best of them to share here on the blog.

Many of these are much easier than I would have thought and I like that by making them at home I can make them as healthy or as indulgent as I like, and they’re real money savers too. No need to go out every night for your favorites when you can make them right at home!
