Gluten Free Comfort Food




Just a quick Valentine's update... these are the beautiful Valentine's flowers I got today! Receiving flowers is one of my favorite things so even though fed ex (grrr....) delivered them a day late and with a broken vase (!!!!), they have happily found a home on my desk. It's days like this that I need flowers to make me smile! Plus, my valentine got their money back because of the hassle, so bonus for them too!! :)

After an extremely long day and missing my voice, which was suddenly gone when I woke up, I decided that I needed some comfort food!

My go to is always peanut butter and honey (duh!). Unfortunately, I am out of bread and didn't want
to wait the 5 hours for it to bake. So I searched around and found some Gluten Free Bisquick mix in my kitchen. On the back of the box was a recipe for gf biscuits so I thought I would give it a try. I did have to make one substitution of using butter because I am out of shortening.

They were extremely easy to make with very few ingredients, and in only 15 minutes, they were ready! The taste was a little bland but I wonder if the shortening would have made them a little tastier. Certainly something to pick up for next time. I will definitely try them again because
of the ease and quickness of enjoy time. Maybe next time I will try the pancake recipe!


Of course, half the deliciousness of a biscuit is what you put on it!

mmmm...... yummy!

  1. Claire - What I am about to say is probably going to come as no suprise, but, I'll say it anyways...."You are RUINING my life" ;) Now I signed up to read this blog of yours and feel the need to begin another blog of my own but I am fairly certain that I will not be able to compete with your eloquent writings =) I am sorry that we missed your birthday shindig, however, I will soon be able to attend Tuesday knit nights and we can celebrate over some coffee and fantastic yarn =)

  2. Ha! I appreciate no one making fun of the terrible typos and misspellings on this post! I will have to do better with my proof reading for the next post... I'm sure it killed my mom to see all those grammatical errors :)
