Welcome to Tried & True Recipes!

Over the years I have gathered a great collection of recipes that have become a big hit with my family and friends. Of course I've had the occasional frequent flop and used a recipe that was just plain yuck. My goal with this site is to pass along recipes that I have made and were loved by my friends and family..as well as save you some money and time.
I am looking forward to sharing recipes with you all and getting your feedback.

Enjoy!

Guy's Famous Wings

You might be familiar with Guy Fieri from the Food Network. I took this recipe from his show and changed it up a little bit. These were the best wings I have ever had. Hope you enjoy these as much as my husband and I did. Beware.. we love the make-ya-sweat spicy stuff. You may need to alter this to your liking.

Ingredients :

• A bag of wings (whole wings preferably, any amount, just don't use the pre-seasoned, pre-cooked ones)
• 1 Tablespoon Cayenne Pepper
• 1 Tablespoon Cumin
