Mmm mmm mmm… biscuits and gravy. This is another recipe that I am not too sure when I learned to love it. It’s one of my husband’s favorite meals and is super easy to make.
There are two parts to this: first is the biscuits and second is the gravy. Both have to be great. We add in extras like vegan crumbles – they are like ground breakfast sausage except better (mostly because it’s not meat) to make it even better. If we have it handy, we also give ourselves a good sprinkle of shredded vegan cheese as well.
These biscuits are super easy to make and with this recipe you can bake half immediately and freeze the other half. Which is great so the next time you need some biscuits you can pull them right out of the freezer! Just keep them in an airtight container or a zipper bag.
