Biscuits and Gravy

This is probably my favorite indulgent food. I love biscuits. I love meat. I love gravy. This combines all three in a perfect heart attack waiting to happen.  But they are sooooooooooo good.

Cheddar Bay Biscuits

I've only been to Red Lobster a couple of times, and the only memorable thing about my visits was their biscuits. Light cheddar biscuits filled with savory seasonings. Yum yum.

I won't be able to go due to conflicting wedding things, but baked goods were requested for the gathering - and that's the least I can do. The original title of this recipe was Downeast… Continue reading Northwest Pumpkin Bread

Gruyère Beer Bread

I'm making a delicious beef stew for dinner tonight, and thought this rich, cheesy bread would be a perfect complement to the hearty, savory stew. Gruyère is generally known as one of the finest cheeses for baking, having a distinctive but not overpowering taste. It also melts amazingly well. I've used mozzarella in this bread… Continue reading Gruyère Beer Bread
