This easy dupe for Chinese take out not only uses ingredients you can find in your the regular grocery store, but it comes together in about 15 minutes. And it's just as good when you eat it as leftovers.
Easy Beer Battered Fish Sandwich
This is the fried fish sandwich you'll actually make at home. Yes, it involves frying and homemade tartar sauce, but the whole thing is so easy can be made in about 20 minutes. The result is something that tastes like it took a whole lot longer than that.

Three more salad recipes that are substantial, craveable, and easy to make: Shawarma Tahini, Spring Roll, and Classic Italian.

The reuben is such a colossal treat of a sandwich. It’s packed with flavor and really hits on all levels when it’s made well.
Classic Chicago Italian Beef
The Italian Beef Sandwich aka one of Chicago's four main food groups is a sloppy, drippy, monster of a sandwich and a damn good one at that. I grew up on these gut bombs and it was a real thrill to create a video showing you how to make your own at home from scratch.
Spinach Artichoke Dip
On the list of all time greatest dips, Spinach Artichoke Dip falls somewhere near the top. But making GOOD spinach & artichoke dip can be tricky. You need nice melty cheese that's not greasy and you want to taste the spinach and artichokes, but you don't want a watery dip. I'll address all of those things in this most holy of dip recipes.

Giant Cinnamon Rolls
These cinnamon rolls are literally everything you could want from a cinnamon roll. Gooey, sticky, cinnamony, yeasty, AND you don't have to go to the mall to get them.
