The ONLY Egg Salad Recipe You Need
This may hands down be the best egg salad recipe of all time and is jam-packed with onion, celery, garlic, pickles, and mayonnaise on toasted bread. You will be blown away at just how good this is.
Egg salad is a simple bound salad consisting of diced hard-boiled eggs with mayonnaise, seasonings, and vegetables. It is incredibly simple to make and a great recipe to use if you have a lot of leftover hard-boiled eggs.
Egg Salad has been around since the late 19th century and was adapted early on with the use of mayonnaise, transitioning from butter. They became popular throughout the United States because it was easy to make with always in-season ingredients, and it was high in protein and low in carbohydrates.
There is nothing overly fancy about the egg salad but can be customized to your liking and your budget.

Strawberry Shortcake Should ALWAYS Be like THIS
This Strawberry shortcake Recipe with Homemade Biscuits and Fresh Whipped Cream is the absolute perfect spring and summertime recipe. You will love how flaky and tender the biscuits are and just how perfect they go with the strawberries and whipped cream.
Strawberry shortcake is a dessert consisting of a rich large, sweet biscuit that is sliced and layered with sweetened fresh strawberries and whipped cream. While shortcake is often thought of as a dessert, savory versions are often made and served with some sort of gravy or filling.
The original strawberry shortcake recipe created in the mid-19th century looks a bit different than today’s version. It used uncooked meringue and a more shortbread type dough and cookie. It has since evolved over the years to what it is today using sweet biscuits, whipped cream, and sweetened strawberries.

Taking the Smash Burger To The Next Level
This smash burger recipe is loaded up with my secret meat blend and is seared to perfection with melted American cheese, special sauce, and toppings on a toasted bun. Once you try it, this will hands down be your new favorite burger recipe
The smash burger is a burger patty that is created by a ball of seasoned ground beef being smashed down on a griddle using a press that helps compress and flavor and cook faster. It is then served up on a toasted bun with sauce, tomato, onion, pickles, and lettuce. It is a delicious burger, and it cooks in way less time than a traditional burger.
While most people associate this with the Smash Burger restaurant, it originated in Ashland, Kentucky at the Dairy Cherry Burger Shop by a man named Bill Cullerton. He created it by smashing burgers with a no 10 can of beans and discovered that it brought out a lot of flavors and cooked very quickly. It has become more popularized in the last 10 to 15 years across restaurants in the United States.

Chilean sea bass is caught in deep waters in and around southern oceans near Antarctica. It is a buttery, firm, mildly sweet, melt-in-your-mouth fish that pairs with just about anything. It is snow-white in color and can be eaten with or without the skin.
You can grill, broil, bake, pan-sear, or poach it. Chilean sea bass is a bit of an overfished species and is often very expensive.
