Copycat recipes are kind of your best friend when you want restaurant-quality food, but don’t feel like leaving the house.
And I don’t blame you.
Going to the restaurant does cost you money, but it also takes up a lot of your time.
So instead of spending time on getting ready to leave, driving to the restaurant, waiting to order, waiting for the food to arrive, and then going back home, you can just relax at home with one of your favorite restaurant dishes.
1. Asiago Tortelloni Alfredo With Grilled Chicken – Olive Garden

This is probably the perfect dinner to make for when you’re craving creamy Italian goodness.
