Homemade Vanilla

We are trying out making our own vanilla due to seeing a thread on reddit about it. We are using Madagascar beans split in half and down the middle in various liquors. Starting with spiced rum and a splash of scotch. Due to how long this will take, there will not be much information. Each…

Keto KFC Twister

Keto remake of the KFC twister: crispy breaded chicken inside a soft wrap with spiced mayo, lettuce, and tomato. Instead of trying to copy the sauce they use, I use some mayo with sriracha and cream cheese. If you add the chicken fresh from the oven, the cream cheese will start to melt and slide…
