Tasty Tuesday

My very favorite thing to eat at the Olive Garden

is the Chicken Scampi!

I order it every time I go!

So I was really happy when one of my favorite food blogs,

Prudence Pennywise

featured her mother's copy cat recipe for the Chicken Scampi a few weeks ago.

As soon as I had a chance I tried the recipe.

I had a few changes of my own but it was wonderful!

So please go here and check out her step

by step pictured directions, you won't be sorry!
