So, I have not been doing this unprocessed month thing, because everything I eat is processed. My tears are made of Blue #7 and I can hear Doritos grinding together in my joints when I jog.
So it should be no surprise that I love things that are baked and filled with cheese. I particularly always had a soft spot for those little cheese biscuits you get at Red Lobster (I force Crystal to take me to Red Lobster, because apparently I am a bad husband and/or seven years old). So when we were paging through cookbooks looking for all natural things to make, I scoffed a bit when we encountered a cheese biscuit recipe. It can't possibly be as good as the ones the pimply sixteen year olds make at Red Lobster, I scoffed, what with their MSG firehoses and access to low-grade cocaine.
But somehow I was wrong, they totally are.
It's a pretty simple recipe, it goes like this.
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons (kind of a weird amount) of flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 egg
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup milk
3/4 teaspoon dried dill (we used wet, and also a lot more than that, and it was fine)
1 cup shredded extra-sharp Cheddar (we used non-sharp but it would have been better if we had sharpened it I think)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 grind (?) of pepper
Mix flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper in the dry bowl. Mix egg, olive oil, milk, dill, and cheese in the wet bowl. Then let their powers combine. Mix, fill some muffin tins, bake for 10 minutes or so at 450.
They are good. Here's a picture.
Oh man, I'm going to have to jog so many Pringles out of my knees for this.
