Review: Sweet Potato Soup and Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits
The Sweet Potato Soup was wonderful. You do have to bake the sweet potatoes and the red onion for about 45 minutes - 1 hour and then let them cool before you can start assmbling, so if you make it, that's something to keep in mind. Otherwise, it met all my requirements for quick, easy and yummy!
The Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits were AWESOME. I modified the recipe only slightly... I used a combination cheddar/monterey jack cheese that I had on hand because I forgot to buy cheddar. That didn't seem to make a big difference. I also added about a teaspoon and a half of cayenne pepper to the batter, a little extra garlic powder to the butter wash and baked them at 450. Ten minutes was sufficient at the higher temperature. (just good to know now that we've tried it both ways here on TNG) As Krystyna recommended, I did the butter wash both before they went in the oven and after. OH, and I baked them on my baking stone. Not sure if that made any difference,but they did come out great, so I thought I should mention it.
Not the best picture, but you get the idea!
Yep. We'll be having these again!
