These are easy peasy. No culinary skills required. My kids could easily make these. No cutting, rolling. Just scoop and drop.
Heck, if I would have known how simple it was to make these I would easily be 10 pounds heavier by now. Seriously! They are the great addition to any meal. Pop these on the table and they’ll disappear in no time.
You’ll feel much better knowing what ingredients are in them too. No refrigerated biscuits for me. Thank you very much!
Next I think I’ll experiment a little. I’ll try white whole wheat and then I’ll get a little creative with flavors. Who likes flavor? I certainly do.
Hmmm… I’m thinking Parmesan next time around. Be sure to come back and look for it in the near future. My mouth’s already watering. Yum!
Thanks for stopping by today!
Love and blessings,
Melanie
