Homemade Breakfast Biscuits
From: Linda
I loved your breakfast menu tips. I had forgotten that I used to make breakfast sandwiches.
Whenever I made baking powder biscuits (for chicken & biscuits, shortcake, etc.) I made a double batch. I fried an egg for each one, added a slice of cheese, wrapped them in plastic wrap and froze each individually. We zapped them in the microwave l or 2 minutes right out of the freezer (can’t remember how long exactly).
Thanks for reminding me of a quick tasty breakfast. Don’t know why I’ve forgotten about making them!
We often think of making double batches of casseroles and things for dinner but I thought it was a great idea to make a double batch for breakfast which is something we don’t often think about.
Check out your menus and see what can be doubled and used for breakfast the next day. Here are a couple of my ideas:
Take your biscuits and use peanut butter and bananas for breakfast or lunch for the kids. Add jelly and a couple of slices of bacon or a sausage patty.
Don’t forget pancakes. Put peanut butter with maybe some bananas roll them up for a tasty snack or lunch.
I use the Ninety Minute Roll recipe in the Dining on a Dime Cookbook. It makes 1 dozen dinner rolls but I double it (everything but the yeast) and use half for dinner rolls. I quickly roll out the other half, spread with margarine and sugar and cinnamon, roll and cut and I have cinnamon rolls all ready to warm for breakfast the next morning.
When I make rice, I always make extra. I leave it in the pan I made it in. Then I pour just enough milk on it to cover the rice and let it sit in the fridge overnight. In the morning, I just heat it up and add sugar and cinnamon for a nice hot cereal.
