What Can’t You Make with Bisquick?
In Macdeath, Riley (an actor and sort of doofus who’s talented in spite of himself) lives off a box of Bisquick for a week. This is based on a true story, and though the actor who told it to me mostly made biscuits and pancakes, it got me thinking about what you could do with a box of Bisquick and not a lot of other ingredients. So here goes…
You can make:
Flour tortillas! http://www.thedailymeal.com/flour-tortillas
Beer bread – I suspect my Bisquick-eating actor friend had a few beers in his fridge. http://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/bisquick-beer-bread/a7972952-f3af-4385-aa50-b2bf9aff4118
Jam Drops – If you were really broke, you could make these using some of those tiny tubs of jelly you get in restaurants. http://www.food.com/recipe/jam-drops-195506
7-Up Biscuits – Even though buying sour cream might have been a stretch, I had to include this recipe because, well, because they’re 7-Up Biscuits! Whoda thunk it?http://www.angiessouthernkitchen.com/2012/06/7-up-biscuits/
And my favorite idea: Churros! I would totally eat these. http://www.thedailymeal.com/bisquick-churros
