Box Combo at Home
When you hear the word Box Combo, what comes to mind? For me it’s Raising Canes. I love Raising Canes. For those who don’t know Raising Canes originated in Baton Rouge, LA. Now I have to say, Canes is better in Louisiana than here in Texas. That’s my opinion and I’m sticking with it.
Though I love Canes, I don’t eat it often. One day, I was craving it and decided to make my own version at home. This meal was a hit with the entire family. Much cheaper than picking this up at Raising Canes.
