Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.


5 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 1/2 teaspoon tarragon vinegar
1 pound asparagus, steamed just until tender-crisp
Melt the butter in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the pecans and saute, stirring frequently, for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the pecans are golden and crisp through. Stir in the tarragon vinegar.
Place the asparagus on serving plates, and spoon the sauce over it. Serve immediately.

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

I liked this quite a bit. Simple flavors and easy to prepare. The tarragon vinegar added a very nice flavor to it.

Extremely easy to make! The buttery pecans add a nice nutty crunch to the fresh asparagus. The tarragon vinegar helps to balance out the richness of the butter.
