Cheese and Onion Biscuits with White Gravy 

I suspect this is why I've never been able to lose that 20lbs that plagues me!

when I went into the kitchen, all I wanted was peanut butter toast. We were out of bread. This was the end result of that minor oversight on my part. KEEP BREAD IN FREEZER!


2 1/2 Cups Flour
1 /3 Shortening
 mix with fork until pea size
1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt
1 teaspoon Baking Powder

set aside and chop 1 small onion then saute in pan with small amount of oil and 1 pat of butter. Cool before adding.

I didn't measure milk of cheese..

add approx 1/2 cup Milk and  about 1/2 cup EACH of shredded Mozzarella and Cheddar Cheese mixing until just holding together. Then drop onto parchment paper on cookie sheet.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 12 minutes or until they look done to you.. OH MY they are good.

Then for the gravy I simply used the same pan I sauteed the onions in and added oil, and again a pat of butter for flavor, flour browned for about 5 minutes, then added  milk, salt and pepper and cooked over medium heat until gravy was consistency that we like. It's not rocket science.   Enjoy!
