Actually, the Pioneer Woman perfected mac &amp; cheese, I just made it even better by topping it with bacon and sauteed onions. It's enough to make a grown man cry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-533092 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 22:38:35 +0000 MissKitten 533092@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mother's lasagna recipe.

I don't make it often, but I used to crave fried chicken like crazy and started making it myself because they don't have fried chicken joints here! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-533009 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 21:40:35 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 533009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sugar cookies, from scratch. I make them on a regular basis so that it's almost second nature to me. Although I'm a little rusty with a LO running around, I still find that I know the timing well enough so that I can -feel- when they're done rather than keep checking on them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-532955 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 21:16:10 +0000 MrsRcCar 532955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My recipe for gucamole.

Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-532929 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 21:10:56 +0000 Bao 532929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: @Boogs: It's the basic recipe on the back of the Nestle Toll House chocolate chips (milk chocolate). I put in all the ingredients but I skip the vanilla altogether. Everything goes in, but the flour goes in last. After the flour goes in instead of mixing it real thin, I kind of fold the dough over with a spoon until it is well mixed but sort of chunky. I just drop them on to the pan and don't roll them/smooth them in any way. I set the oven to 25 degrees less than what the recipe calls for and they go in for exactly 9 minutes. No more. No less. Perfect! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-532912 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 21:05:34 +0000 Boogs 532912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like I can make a number of good things, but I don't know that I would go as far as saying I perfected them.</p> <p>@Bao: @Mrs. High Heels: Would love recipes if you wouldn't mind sharing. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-532872 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 20:56:10 +0000 pastemoo 532872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What's a recipe? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-532867 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 20:54:55 +0000 MrsH 532867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Monster cookies :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-531690 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 13:48:00 +0000 tororojo 531690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Guacamole!

I'm really picky about biscuits and it took like two years of trial and error to get it perfecetly right. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-531458 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 12:33:10 +0000 T-Mom 531458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: oh goodness it is embarrassing how simplistic it is. I do a 6 eggs to 3 medium tomato ratio. Whisk the eggs and salt a tiny bit, maybe 1/8 tsp. Cut tomatoes into eighths. Cook eggs until firm, but still tiny bit underdone. The key is not to move them around too much and to make large folds of eggs. Remove eggs and set aside. Cook tomatoes over medium heat, salted to taste (if your eggs turned out too salty, can make tomatoes more so, and vice versa) and with a pinch of sugar until softened and barely holding shape. Combine egg and tomato in bowl. This is my mom's style, but everyone's mom does it differently. My Korean BFF looooves this but I also had a friend spit it out once because it was way saltier than her mom's :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-531445 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 12:30:19 +0000 Sammyfab 531445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Chili.

My BFF's grandma makes the best I've ever had, and I have not been able to recreate it. It always turns into an oily mess.</p> <p>I make a Chinese egg and tomato dish, but I don't feel like any of my other recipes are perfect yet... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-recipe-have-you-perfected#post-531349 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 12:03:45 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 531349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This korean braised short rib dish called galbijjim. </p> <p>Can you share your perfected choc chip cookie recipe?
