Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.

I've always just been kind of lukewarm on parsnips but we tried this recipe last night and loved it! Of course, what's not to love about something breaded and fried, right? I did use more breadcrumbs than called for though because 8 tbsp wasn't enough to really get a good coating. And it all stuck to the parsnip cakes just fine. Thank you for this recipe!
