SWEET POTATO BISCUITS

Image
SWEET POTATO BISCUITS One of my favorite things to do is repurpose holiday leftovers. The hubby and I both have a hard time eating the same leftovers day in and day out, so turning something like baked sweet potatoes into these biscuits is the perfect solution! They’re flavorful, tender and flakey- everything you want in a buttermilk biscuit! This was the first time I had ever made these sweet potato biscuits, and let me tell you, they did not disappoint! I scooped out the center of a large cooked sweet potato, pureed it and then went to work making the rest of the dough. It was so easy and almost effortless! To start, in a small mixing bowl whisk together the puree along with a good amount of buttermilk. It’s important to use real buttermilk in this recipe for both flavor and texture.

SAUSAGE, PEPPER AND RICE SKILLET Smoky kielbasa sizzled with sweet bell pepper, onions and garlic in vibrant tomato sauce. This quick and easy sausage, pepper and rice skillet is downright delicious! Today I’m sharing another quick and easy meal with you guys. This is one we’ve made twice now and I just love how simple, yet flavorful it is. Grab your skillet and let’s get cooking! First, you’ll want cook your rice. I grabbed a small saucepan and had it simmering away while I made everything else. Timing is key, but if you do everything it the right order, it’ll be done when you need it. Next, brown the sausage. I used kielbasa, however, andouille would work well too. Get it nice and crispy, then spoon it off to a plate for later. Season and saute the peppers, onion, and garlic, get them nice and tender (I find half of a red bell pepper and half of a yellow bell pepper is perfect- we tossed the leftovers in these noodles later in the week). Again, once the veggies ar
