Easy Mayonnaise Drop Biscuits with Fruit!

I got this recipe from GeorgieBrent on allrecipes.com and after reading all the positive reviews, I decided to try it out. I'm always on the lookout for versatile recipes that can be used in a variety of ways. I have a large family, so a quick recipe is golden for me. This was both super easy to make and super versatile! Here's the basic ingredient list from allrecipes.com

2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup milk
6 tablespoons mayonnaise

How it's Done:

1. Pre-Heat Oven to 400 degrees

2. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients until just blended. Drop by spoonfuls onto lightly greased baking sheets.

3. Bake for approximately 12 minutes, or until golden brown.

After spooning the dough onto baking sheets, I then plopped a spoonful of preserves over each one. Then I covered it with some batter I had reserved. My batch only made 9 biscuits, but they were really generously sized, and just enough for everyone to have their fill. Check out my photos for ingredients used, and how everything turned out.

Deviations from the original recipe:
I would recommend mixing the flour and mayo first... Then add the milk slowly until you reach desired dough consistency. I added all the milk and ended up having to use more flour.

S-N-O-W!!

1st Attempt at Personal Pizzas

This may not look pretty but it sure was a fun little dinner to make with the kids. There are so many different toppings you can do, but we did cheese and sausages.

Ice Storm Cometh!

Hey All- Be careful traveling today. Newscasts are advising staying in today if you can. Main roads in Oak Ridge appear to be okay, but my Hubbs almost slipped and fell going out to his truck this morning.

Here's what I found coating my car and the driveway a few minutes ago!

Momma Stylin' - Monday's Rainy Day Wear

My round pregnant belly likes to be shown off in style, so this winter I've found myself sporting these open sweaters with a dramatic draping quality. This is my newest find... I love the earthy browns mixed with a turquoise blue. I've paired it with a simple empire waist top with its own bit of detail across the bust-line. It's casual but I still feel pretty, and not clunky and bloated.

My Frugal Finds

Love is... This red hot little beauty that I found at Goodwill for a steal. The circles are made of real leather! Perfect find for Valentine's Day fun.
