I never intended to make this site about recipes, but I couldn’t resist sharing this one with you. I substituted minced garlic as the recipe actually called for 1 ½ t of powdered garlic and I did use dried herbs. If it were spring or summer I’d use fresh herbs instead. I even think a sprinkling over the top of the buns would be nice, don’t you?

They turned out great!
