KFC Biscuits

We had these biscuits when we were visiting friends, and even though they were a day old, I had to have the recipe. So, so good! They're supposed to be a copycat of KFC biscuits, but I like them even more than those. Yum!

Chicken and Biscuits Casserole

Another one of our favorites. I've changed this recipe around from its original (which was in a random church cookbook) to include more vegetables because it was just frozen peas. Feel free to add whatever you want. I always have to double it to have enough for everyone, so I'm putting those measurements. If you feel like this will be too much, just half the Cream of Chicken, sour cream, milk, spices and the biscuit topping. Everything else can stay the same and be fine. I've never actually used the dried onion flakes because I can never find them at the store, but maybe I'm just not looking in the right place. I'm sure it's fine either way. And don't try to substitute refrigerated biscuits instead of making them. They don't cook right, and it's not worth it. If I make this as a freezer meal, I mix the ingredients together, but I don't heat it up. I start from there after I've thawed it, and then you just have to make the biscuit dough. And don't mind the picture. We usually eat it in a bowl, so I don't know what I was thinking by putting it on a plate.

This is a great one to use Rotisserie Chicken.
