Restaurant Copy Cat Recipe Book

With a big family, eating out can be a major expense. These recipes can make your favorite meals affordable. We work to recreate the tastes that you love from your favorite spots. Whether it's fast food, a specialty drink or a delightful dessert from that certain coffee shop, we try to bring a variety of recipes to help conquer your craving without breaking the bank. This cookbook is designed for "culinary challenged" as well as the typical cook. When we began creating recipes for CincyShopper, we found that people like the recipes and love the pictures. We got lots of feedback about how the pictures let them know what it should look like. I didn't realize exactly what they were telling me until I had one reader point to an example from another site, which had gone poorly for her. Upon looking at the recipe and the picture, the problem was obvious. The beautiful picture was not made from the ingredients they had listed. It was probably a stock picture they had bought because they lacked photography skills, but this poor reader had spent a lot of time and frustration trying to achieve this unattainable image of the dish. After a while, we began selling versions of the recipes to other websites to share with their readers. We looked at it as a way to make a little extra income while helping readers of other blogs avoid having their cooking adventures go horribly wrong. We make and tweak each recipe to get the taste just right. Then, we photograph it to show you how it should look. No surprises. No stock photos.

Welcome to Just Recipes

Hello and how are you? Hope all is as well as can be. I am starting a new blog about recipes. I love to eat so therefore I should love to cook. My favorite is baking. I always find recipes online and save or book mark them. I figure one day I'll make this. I'm always looking for something new to make. What about you? What is your favorite thing to make? I have things come to my email and also find recipes on Facebook and Twitter. So this is just the beginning. I will post recipes up probably daily but definetly weekly. I always find something that I like. So I hope you follow me so we can go on this journey together. Thanks Michelle. Here's the first recipe.
