J.P.'S BIG DADDY BISCUITS
This recipe will produce the biggest biscuits in the history of the world! Serve these gems with butter, preserves, honey, gravy or they can also be used as dinner rolls...you get the picture. The dough can also be prepared several hours, and up to a day ahead of time. If so, turn dough out onto aluminum foil that has been either floured, lightly buttered or lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Roll up foil until it is sealed, and refrigerate. Don't be surprised if your biscuits rise even higher because the baking powder has had more time to act in the dough. You may have to make a few batches before you get desired results: desired results equals huge mongo biscuits.

GOBBLE UP GRANOLA SNACKS
This is a quick granola snack recipe that my sister-in-law gave to me one snow day when the kids were home. She told me the kids would eat the batch in a day and she was sure right! I tend to double the recipe so I am not making it every day!

Tips:
- Use a variety of oats. This will give your granola a more complex flavor and texture. Rolled oats, steel-cut oats, and instant oats can all be used.
- Choose your nuts and seeds wisely. Nuts and seeds are a great source of healthy fats, protein, and fiber. Some good options include almonds, walnuts, pecans, pepitas, and sunflower seeds.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different dried fruits. Dried fruits are a great way to add sweetness and chewiness to your granola. Some good options include raisins, cranberries, cherries, and apricots.
- Sweeten your granola to taste. You can use honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar to sweeten your granola. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
- Bake your granola at a low temperature. This will help to prevent it from burning. Bake your granola at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes, or until it is golden brown.
- Let your granola cool completely before storing it. This will help to prevent it from becoming too clumpy.
Conclusion:
Granola is a delicious and healthy breakfast or snack. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own liking. With a little creativity, you can create a granola that is perfect for you.
