1 7.5 ounce tube refrigerated biscuits
Cheese
1. Brown ground beef and onion.

4. Simmer for 5 minutes.
5. Separate biscuits.
6. Pres into bottom and sides of a greased muffin tin.

I had to buy a 4-pack of biscuits when I made the Easy Biscuit Doughnuts. This recipe seemed like a good way to use up another can however my biscuits were smaller. I rolled them out and made them cover as much of the muffin tins as I could but they still didn't cover the sides so the cheese ended up gluing them in. It took a little elbow grease to get them out of the pan and the pan needed a good soaking afterwards but it wasn't too big of a disaster.
I can see how these would be nice to serve to children instead of a traditional sloppy joe. They're cute and definitely not as messy. If you use the right size biscuit, they should pop right out of the pan.
Blast From The Past: Meat Puffs from June 2007. That's a different kind of meat muffin, also very good.
Question of the Day: How often do you cook for kids?
Ummm...like, never! :-) My mom used to make these when I was little...I liked them then, but I don't know if I would now. A good kid food.
ReplyDeleteYes, every day. It is sometimes challenging...I leave out some ingredients that I know they don't like in certain dishes. But, all in all, I guess you could say they are pretty good eaters.
ReplyDeleteI made these little goodies once. In the Saturday edition of our daily newspaper is a children's section that includes a recipe easy enough for children to make (some with adult help) and something they would probably like. I'm glad I'm reminded to make them again soon.

Sounds like a good recipe for kids. I think I'll try it.
ReplyDeleteAs far your question...I seem to run a resturant at my house. My oldest is very picky...my youngest only 18 months will eat pretty much anything and my husband works shift work, I'm cooking all the time...so everyday sometimes, 2/3 different times.
I too have a recipe blog come check it out...P B & J or else...
By the way...love your blog
My 2-year old has recently become a very big fan of anything that resembles either a muffin or a pancake so I'm definitely going to be making these soon!
