Easy Eats

My new discovery of the week is biscuit mix. Biscuit mix + Shredded Cheese = Cheesy Biscuits! Biscuits + Herbs = Herb Biscuits. Now that’s the kind of math I like. I had some left-over pesto… so I defrosted some of my stew and made some pesto biscuits!

Ingredients:

• 2 ¼ cup Biscuit Mix
• 2/3 milk (any kind)
• Pesto (easy recipe here)

Directions: (click on images to enlarge)

1. Preheat oven to 450 F.
2. Stir biscuit mix, milk, and pesto together until it barely comes together and forms a dough.
3. Remove to a cutting board dusted with flour or biscuit mix.
4. Knead 10 times only. Try not to overwork it.
5. Spoon onto an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes (Keep an eye on it towards the end).
6. Makes about 8-10 biscuits.

Serving Suggestion: Went great with my thawed Fridge-clearing stew.

Cost:
The pesto was a leftover, and the biscuit mix cost $2.59 for a huge box, worth probably 50-75 biscuits. Very economical.

Final comments:
My new friend, Biscuit and Baking Mix. I can’t believe it took me so long to find it. I think I like the cheesy biscuits better than these pesto ones, though. I love that I can make them in 10 minutes.
