Although I don’t eat fast food any more (or at least, it’s been years since I have), that doesn’t mean I don’t get a hankerin’ for it every now and then. Here lately I’ve been jonesin’ for a sandwich from Arby’s. In no time I was enjoying a copycat Arby’s Beef-n-Cheddar sandwich with a side of curly fries. It was just like I went to the fast food restaurant. Only better because I made it. And making it yourself is so much more rewarding than getting food from a drive-thru or having a GrubHub driver deliver it! At least, that’s my thinking!
Spot-On Yummy
This copycat Arby’s Beef-n-cheddar with curly fries did the classic sandwich justice. And the fries were right on the money too. My cravin’ was satisfied (for now)! And the best part? I can pile as much meat and cheese on my sandwich as I want. Heck, I can add more cheese too. And extra Arby’s sauce! And while I’m at it, I want more curly fries too!
Also try my copycat of Arby’s roast beef sandwich! I’ve also made spiral fries from scratch, which came out fantastic!
