Bisquick

I like to use them as the base for little pizzas. Small circular 'pizza crusts' that anyone can decorate and make specifically to their tastes. Just sauce and cheese, or if someone wants ham, bacon, or whatever, they can fix themselves a quick and easy snack or meal.

I love Bisquick, there are so many things you can make with it., I absolutely love the cheeseburger pie on the box. I add some bacon to it and it is great. I also love the simple drop biscuits with grape or strawberry jam. I have been making them since I was about 10. It was one of the first things I made as a kid. I would even use it in my easy bake oven.

Bisquick is wondrous! Pretty much anything you want to make, you can make it with bisquick pretty easily. Pancakes and waffles, of course, are the simplest, but the biscuits are really good too. I also make pigs in a blanket using dough from bisquick. It is a quick and simple way to make a yummy lunch. It does dessert too; I made cobbler using bisquick too.

I'll admit it then: I love bisquick...

I do love their bisquits. Thanks for the link for the cofee cake. I am going to have to try that. What are the impossible pies? Never heard of that.

Have you ever thought about making your own bisquick mix? it is simple and cheaper then buying it. Best Biscuit Mix

No, we no longer use Bisquick in our food preparation. Believe me, I used to swear by it and use it often. However once both of our local cardiologist and our hospital's dietician explained things to me about transfat, I no longer use Bisquick. It is among many other products that have been stripped from our kitchen! Trans fat acts pretty much like plastic in our arteries. It is the worst of all plaque and even strips out our good cholesterol! (the the type that helps with vitamin absorption) We should not have ANY in our diet, but that is so hard to achieve and probably unrealistic. However, what is terrible is that food manufactures HIDE the transfats now in the ingreidents list by using words other than 'hydrogenated' and p'aritally hydrogenated'!!! Bisquick has a lot of trans fat per serving so it isn't worth it to me to feed it to my family. I have a link below that tells how to use the NUMBERS on the nutritional information for decyphering fat content rather than trying to trust the WORDS!!!

I am responding from my email. So did you forget the pancakes? Very lite and fluffy and easy to make too.

I agree, I love the stuff. I use it all the time for pancakes, biscuits, coffee cake, shortcake. I don't think I know any recipes that aren't just on the box lol.

I'll tell you what. Now you have me hungry and I'm going to check out the website. Good job!

I have a Bisquick cookbook that I bought a few years ago. I have made many of the recipes in this book. You can even make your own convenience mix. Check out Villageanne's discussions. She has posted the recipe for the convenience mix.

You are so right

Bisquick is a very easy and versatile thing to use, and if you are an a user of bisquick sometimes people look at a recipe and see that there are 4 things in the recipe that are found in bisquick, so they use that instead...

I think shortcuts like bisquick are great and I have used it to make quick easy meals like Chicken pot pies, or cheeseburger pies when I was desperate for dinner ideas.
