Biscuit Stars: HT Take a Trick a Day w/Bisquick (part 1 of 2: pp. 1 - 19)

Some of my favorite movies are from around the time this cookbook was published.  I'm not convinced, though, that this will guarantee some of my favorite dishes will come from this era (or this cookbook, really), but there are some interesting menu ideas here, nonetheless. 


Especially if you're a fan of quick-and-easy carbs.

There's a scant handful of recipes at the end of this booklet, too (you can find them in the second half of this posting, here).

This looks special enough






When you're ready to read a few actual recipes, go to the second half of the book, & flip all the way to the last 6 pages… or, rather, click here & scroll to the bottom.
