Easy Red Lobster Biscuits

Yesterday I woke up from a wonderful Sunday nap and I was STARVING! I've been wanting to try this recipe for a while now, and when I awoke from my deep slumber I got right to it. The recipe is surprisingly easy for such a delectable snack, 

Ingredients: 
2 cups Bisquick baking mix

1/2 cup cold water
3/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 cup butter
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning

Directions:
1 Heat oven to 450.
2 Combine baking mix, water and grated cheese in a bowl.
3 I mixed it all together and rolled 1 inch balls of dough
4 place on an ungreased pan.
5 Melt butter and spices together. (I found that I really didn't need as much butter as it called for, you probably could half it. 
6 Brush the biscuits with the butter and bake for 8 to 10 minutes.


7 This batch makes about a dozen yummy biscuits!

They came out super golden and Devin and I could barely stop stuffing our faces. These are addicting I warn you!

Cinnamon Monkey Bread

Remember this post? Oh yeah you do because I just posted it like two days ago. Basically ever since last weekend I have been craving that monkey bread like crazy. It was just so dang good. We seriously devoured the entire thing in one morning, so if you are on a diet this may not be the recipe for you. Maybe try a green smoothie or something. Those are mega tasty....anyways back on track. If you want to impress someone, make them this. It looks like you didn't try too hard, but will still blow their mind. My mom found this recipe on the Taste of Home, it is super easy and yummy! Enjoy :)



Ingredients

  • 4 tubes (7-1/2 ounces each) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar

Directions

  • Cut each biscuit into four pieces; shape into balls. In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon. Roll each ball in cinnamon-sugar. Arrange evenly in a greased 10-in. fluted tube pan(If you aren't a chef, a fluted tube is basically a bunt pan.) Sprinkle with remaining cinnamon-sugar.
  • Combine butter and brown sugar; pour over the top. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 5 minutes before inverting bread onto a serving platter.
For a little more flavor add some nutmeg to the cinnamon/sugar mix. Try not to eat the whole thing in a day. I dare you.

Our Substitute Camping Trip

This weekend we went up to Park City to visit my lovely parents. We were planning on going camping this weekend, but a few things came up and we weren't able to go, but we made the best of it anyways. We ate tin foil dinners, a breakfast skillet, and of course S'MORES!! We loved sitting around my parents fire pit, sharing many memories and stories. I think these pictures can describe the weekend better than I can, so enjoy our weekend in pictures!

I was pointing to the marshmallow but it looks like I'm pointing to my mouth, either way that's where it's going!





We had a wonderful weekend. I love my family and my husband. I'm so grateful for the wonderful times that we get to share together. Thanks for stopping by!

I love to see the Temple.

This weekend Devin and I took a trip to the LDS temple in Salt Lake City. This was also where we were married so it definitely holds a special place in our hearts :) Recently it was ranked one of the 8 religious wonders in the United States, and I feel that is very deserving. Devin and I caught a few pictures of the temple and the gorgeous landscape and I wanted to share with you! Afterwards we headed up to my parents for an amazing rest of the weekend, and that post is soon to come. Love you!

Just a walk in the park...

Last night Mr. Bean and I took a walk in the park to try out my new camera (Soooo Excited!) We had fun trying out a few different things and turns out he really loves photography too! That man is natuarally so talented. He always amazes me. These are so pictures of beautiful Nielsons Grove, we snapped some shots of the beautiful flowers and the cute little duckies. All of you photography gurus I would love some advice, I'm new to the DSLR world. Thanks so much! I love you all!
