These sausage cheddar biscuit bites are a quick and easy, yet oh so delicious biscuit recipe your whole family is sure to love!
Lately, I’ve been trying to make sure that I keep the freezer stocked with homemade dishes that I can quickly reheat in the mornings for breakfast on the go or that Sam (and I) can grab and reheat in the afternoons for a snack. I don’t know what it is about teenage boys, but they seem to always be hungry no matter how often you feed them! Ha!
I’m certainly not complaining though!
Since cooking and feeding people is one of my favorite things, we’ve sort of developed an even deeper bond in the kitchen. Especially since he’s out of that phase where nothing sounds good and he’s now squarely in the phase where everything sounds amazing. Or at least for the moment. I’m crossing my fingersit continues.
Sam has always been a great eater, willing to try new things and sometimes surprising me with his requests for meals, but for a short while there I was getting a slight bit worried. He was always requesting the same things and barely picking at the food on his plate, more moving it around with his fork than really enjoying it. And like all Mamas, I fretted over him and over his plate and over whether or not he waseating enough. I sounded like my grandmother, I feel sure.
But as if something magical occurred overnight one night, boom, we are now squarely out of that phase and into the, “Hey Mama, what are we having for supper?” at 3 o’clock in the afternoon. And now, you can just imagine the smile on my face as I’m stocking the pantry, refrigerator and freezer full of food that not only fills him up but keeps him going.
Since biscuits have always been one of Sam’sabsolute favorite things, I decided we needed something quick and easy to tide him over until suppertime that included that tried and true favorite. These delicious little nibbles came to be and have been a favorite in my house ever since. Theyremind me a combination of a sausage and cheese biscuit and sausage balls. In other words,they are simply scrumptious!
Here’s my Sausage Cheddar Biscuit Bites recipe. Make ’em soon! I think you’ll love them!
