Monkey Bread for Two

Yesterday was a beautiful 70° day and I took advantage of it getting out and about but another cold front blew in last night so I get to bake today.  I like baking in cold weather for several reasons: warms the kitchen, smells wonderful and the food is comforting.  Right now I am enjoying the cinnamon smell of a small batch of Monkey Bread.  I cook for two most of the time so I adapted the recipe down for us.  Here is my super simple recipe…

Breakfast on the go

Some mornings you just know are going to be busy so you need a ready to go breakfast.  My sister introduced me to this easy breakfast recipe that can be made the night or days ahead.  Sausage biscuits are great on a Saturday morning next to the coffee along with some fresh fruit as a quick fix before the mid morning brunch or as a late night snack in front of the fireplace and teenagers like to grab them on their way out the door.

Easy Sausage Biscuit Recipe

• 2 Cups dry biscuit mix (purchased or make your own)
• 1 (5 oz.) Kraft Old English sharp pasteurized process cheese spread
• 1 hand full (about 1/2 cup) shredded cheese (what ever you have)
• 1 small tube breakfast sausage (mild or hot, your choice)
• Mix all ingredients together thoroughly.  Form little biscuit shapes and place on a cookie sheet.  I usually spray the cookie sheet with oil, but I don’t think you have to.
• Bake 12-15 minutes at 350° F.  Store in a covered container when they are cooled.
