New Recipes!

So I have been adding some new things to my family's meal schedule. Here is the recipes:

Breakfast Egg Biscuits

1 pound of Jimmy Dean's All Natural Pork Sausage
1/2 cup Kirkland's Real Bacon Pieces
1/2 cup cheese, shredded
1 batch of homemade biscuits (recipe below)
8-10 eggs scrambled with a touch of milk added

Homemade Biscuits
2 cups all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tbl sugar
2 tbl baking powder
3 tbl Spectrum organic shortening 
1 cup milk (with 1 tea. vinegar to make more of a buttermilk biscuit if you prefer) 

Mix dry ingredients together. Cut in the shortening. If you want to sour the milk, let that sit for a few minutes while you mix the dry ingredients. Then mix in the milk until ingredients are moist. Flour the counter lightly and dump the biscuit dough onto the counter. Flatten with your hands until about 1/2" to 3/4" thickness. Cut out circles using a biscuit cutter. If just making biscuits, bake at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes.

Directions:
For the Breakfast Egg Biscuit recipe, cook pork sausage until cooked through, then make the biscuits but do not bake. When the biscuits are cut out, lay them in the muffin tin but press the dough up the side of the tin making a well. Add in a 1 tbl of sausage, 1 tea of bacon pieces, and pinch of cheese and then top with the scrambled egg mixture. Bake at 375 degrees until egg mixture is cooked through. 

Take out of the tin while still warm. 

Homemade Sub Sandwich Dough

1 cup warm/hot water
1 1/2 tbl extra virgin olive oil
2 3/4c all purpose flour or bread flour
1/8 c organic cane sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 teaspoon yeast

1 Egg White
2 teaspoon water

Place all ingredients, in order, into bread machine. Select dough cycle. When dough cycle is done, place on lightly floured counter. Separate dough into 4-6 pieces. Roll them out to make nice logs about 3" in diameter. Place on a stoneware baking sheet. Let raise covered for 15-20 minutes in a warm area. I turn on my glass top cook stove on 5 for a few minutes, then turn off. After the dough has raised, slice tops every 2" with a sharp knife. Mix the egg white and water. Brush on the dough. Bake at 400 degrees until golden brown, 8-10 minutes. Top as desired once out of the oven.
