Forget my call for Maximum Nutrition, you won’t find it with this buttery homemade version of Red Lobster’s famous Cheddar Bay Biscuits. Melt in your mouth, garlic buttery heaven, these are a splurge for a very special dinner at home, whether it is date night, anniversary or a birthday!

• 2 C. Bisquick (or use the homemade version below)
• 1  Cup buttermilk
• 1/2 to 1  Cup shredded Cheddar Cheese
• 1/4  Cup butter melted
• 1/4 tsp. dried parsley
• 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp Old Bay Seasoning (some say that makes all the difference!)
  

Preparation -
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine Bisquick, milk and cheese together to form a soft biscuit dough. Drop by tablespoons full onto an ungreased baking sheet and lightly flatten.  Bake at 400º for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Melt butter. Add parsley and garlic to melted butter. Brush butter mixture over biscuits when they come out of the oven. Enjoy piping hot.

These biscuits are also wonderful with a delicious homemade soup with our Bone Building Broth as a base, and a crisp salad, for a hearty lunch or dinner. Enjoy!
