Jalapeno and Mozzarella Biscuits

Guys! I have jalapenos coming out the wazoo, and I am trying to figure out ways to use them before they go bad. Haaaalllp!

My solution this week: stuffing them into biscuits.

So this was my day yesterday: this jalapeno popper grilled cheese sandwich for lunch, and these biscuits along with some soup for dinner. I think it is fair to say that I am all jalapeno-ed out.

…for now! Since I am going back to Vancouver today (excited!!!), I am unable to use them all this week (SO sad…) but ideas for the future would be great for my jalapeno to-make list.

And yes, I do have a jalapeno to-make list. Don’t judge!

These biscuits are fantastic! I actually ran out of milk, but had some leftover coconut milk that needed using, so bam! Something that uses all the ingredients that I have in the fridge so I don’t need to throw them away later today.

So I will leave you with this recipe as I get ready for my flight. Is it bad that I haven’t packed yet?
