Big Mac Recipe: Thin patties on a triple decker bun topped with cheese, onion, and of course the secret Big Mac Sauce.
We never ate much fast food when I was growing up. However, this all changed when we went on vacation.
From the Ohio Animal Park to the beach in Delaware we stopped at every McDonald’s along the way.
I am a fries girl ,but my Mom’s favorite was always the Big Mac (usually while driving with her knees and dropping pickles everywhere).
Looking to create a Copycat Big Mac at home? This version tastes exactly the same and is even a little healthier! Plus you can make it in the comfort of your own home in less than 15 minutes. I’ve waited in the drive through line longer than that!
