Jim n' Nick's Cheese Biscuits

I love bread, and when I went to Jim n' Nicks BBQ for the first time, I experienced a tiny taste of cheesy goodness...their cheese biscuits! This recipe comes incredibly close...it's one of my new favorites. Thanks so much Rebekah! 1 1/2 cups flour 1 cup sugar 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 3/4 cup milk 1 egg, beaten well 4 Tbsp. butter, softened 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. vanilla Mix all ingredients together. Pour into greased muffin pan and bake at 400 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes. This recipe makes approximately 12 muffins. Source: Rebekah's Food Blog - http://workingwifedinners.blogspot.com/

Hearty Vegetable Soup

This is a hearty soup which is great during the colder months. 1 bag mixed frozen vegetables 1/2 bag frozen okra 1 lb. or more lean ground beef, cooked thoroughly 1 lb. small red potatoes, chopped 1 can stewed tomatoes 1 can beef broth 1 onion, diced garlic salt to taste Mix all ingredients in a crock pot. Add enough water to cover everything. Cook on high for approximately 6 hours, or until potatoes are soft. Top with shredded cheddar cheese if you wish. ***It's best to place the potatoes in the very bottom of the crock pot so that they cook a little faster.***
