Cooking with Taylor: The Beatles Favorite Recipes!

NEW ORLEANS – This month marks 55 years since the Beatles came to town. Let’s take a trip back to 1964 to try some of their favorite foods!

How does that Beatles song go? “Can’t Buy Me Lunch?” No, that’s what you get when you love the Beatles, but you’re also craving something yummy. We all know it’s actually “Can’t Buy Me Love,” but Lunch sounds a little better after making some of John, Paul, George And Ringo’s favorite treats.

We’re going back to 1964 to try these delicious snacks on “Cooking with Taylor!”
