Best Easy Baking Powder Biscuits

These are Andrew's favorite ! I usually add spices (Dill, Cracked Pepper,or Chili Powder), or cheese (1/2 C shredded), or cubed ham or sausage and have them with soup as a meal.

2 C all-purpose flour
1 T baking powder
1/4 t salt
1/2 C butter, cubed
1 C milk

Mix first three ingredients , cut in butter until crumbley and add milk to form goupy batter, drop onto greased tray and Bake.

375°F (190°C) oven for about 30 minutes or until golden.

Makes 6 biscuits.

Taco Seasoning

I don't think tacos or nachos are the same without seasoning, but I hate to pay for it. Andrew's Mum made us a whole bunch of mixes for Christmas and this one was included and is so good.

· ¾ C Dried minced onion
· ¼ C Salt
· ¼ C Chili Powder
· 1 T Dried Oregano
· 2 T Cornstarch
· 2 T Crushed dried peppers
· 2 T Dried minced Garlic
· 2 T ground Cumin

Mix all in Jar.

To make taco filling: Brown 1 lb ground beef in skillet of med heat. Drain excess grease. Add ½ C water and 2 T Taco Seasoning mix. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
Makes filling for 8-10 tacos.
