Whipping Cream Biscuits

I had some extra Heavy Whipping Cream in the fridge and needed a recipe.  So, I did a search and came up with this!

This was a very easy recipe and I liked how they taste.  I won't buy Heavy Whipping Cream just for this, but if I ever need to use it up, this will be the recipe I chose!

Puffed Enchilada Bake

This recipe is a keeper- per the husband.  For me, it's one of the better Enchilada recipes I have found, but still not THE ONE. 

Puffed Enchilada Bake

1/2 pound ground beef
1 15 oz can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
10 oz green enchilada sauce
8 oz salsa
1 tube refrigerated biscuit dough
1 cup cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350.

In medium skillet, brown ground beef.  After ground beef is cooked, place in colander and rinse under cool water.  Using a paper towel, wipe skillet clean.  Place ground beef back in skillet. Add kidney beans, enchilada sauce and salsa to ground beef.  Cut biscuits into quarters and add to beef mixture. 

Pour beef and biscuit mixture into greased 9x13 casserole.  Bake 25 minutes.

Add 1 cup cheddar cheese and bake an additional 10 minutes.  Remove from oven and let sit 5 minutes before serving.

Cottage Cheese Biscuits

So, I had some Cottage Cheese on my hands and wanted to do something fun with it . . . tired of the same old same old. I found this recipe and decided to try it.

Can you tell I'm not overly thrilled with the results? To me, the biscuits were so so, and that was with me adding a tablespoon of garlic and a tablespoon of Italian Seasoning. Then again, I'm not a big biscuit fan as I usually find them to all be bland - except for the Cheddar Bay Ones - LOVE THOSE. So, maybe I'll be making these again should I have need of biscuits and have some extra Cottage Cheese on hand.

By the way, I can't recall where this recipe was found . . . maybe foodnetwork. I have modified it, as usual. And, I can't get my computer to have anything to do with my new SD memory cards. So, as soon as I get this little issue fixed, a photo will be uploaded.

Cottage Cheese Biscuits

1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp sea salt
1 T baking powder
1 T minced garlic
1 T Italian Seasoning
5 T unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 16 oz container cottage cheese

Preheat oven to 450. Place flour in large bowl. Add baking powder and salt. Stir until combined. Add butter and mix until clumps form the size of small peas. Add cottage cheese and stir until just combined.

Drop on non-stick cookie sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden. Serve immediately.

*** update ***

~ When I made this, I accidentally got sidetracked and left the second half in the oven (turned off, but still warm). They were a darker golden brown . . . and I liked them a lot better than just golden brown. They seem to have more taste . . . or maybe it was just the fact they sat out overnight. The Husband liked them and said I can make them again (so nice of him to give me permission, huh?).
