so this is my basic that i make. David LOVES biscuits and gravy and i LOVE potatoes and eggs. so we mix them and its darn good.

-----------------------------------------------
first...biscuits! now depending on how lazy your filling or how gung ho you fill you can do pre-packaged, Bisquick mix or make your own drop biscuits like me. The recipe i like for that is...


1 cup flour
1 cup wheat flour
1 tsp sugar ( seems to make it softer )
3 tsp of backing powder
1/2 tsp of salt
1/3 c oil
1 cup milk ( i use prepared powdered milk for my cooking at it comes out really well, i have not noticed any difference. )

what do i do!!??

now turn your oven on to 400!

mix all your dry together just to give it a quick mix

now dump in the wet and mix well to get the lumps out and brake down the flour.
