Fried Potatoes & Whole Wheat Biscuits

I woke up this morning, wanting something warm, comforting, yet easy. So, I came up with the idea of making fried potatoes and drop biscuits. Here are the two recipes that I based this breakfast on: Southwestern Potatoes and Mamaw's Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits.   And as always, here's my version:

Fried Potoatoes

4 medium potatoes

1 onion, sliced

a few mushrooms, sliced

1 teaspoon basil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

salt and pepper to taste

Pop the potatoes in the microwave for about 8 minutes. While they are nuking, saute the sliced onions and mushrooms in a skillet. Slice nuked potatoes. Place in skillet with seasonings. Saute everything until the potatoes are brown.

Whole Wheat Drop Biscuits

2 cups whole wheat flour

1 Tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup soy milk

1 Tablespoon white vinegar

1/3 cup applesauce

Measure out soy milk and add vinegar to it. Let stand while you measure out and mix up everything else. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. Add oil and milk/vinegar to dry ingredients. Don't overmix; it will make your biscuits tough. Drop biscuits on a cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.  Makes 8 large biscuits.
