Don't you just love culinary karma. You know, when you stumble upon a delicious recipe and just so happen to have practically everything in your kitchen already. You might even be struck with a great idea on how to jazz up said recipe. This is culinary karma. For the record I also believe in shopping karma - where you put the beautiful, but pricey dress back on the rack and return a week later to see if they still have your size. If so, well, that little number was just meant to be yours.
Back to the point though, I had a bout of culinary karma the other day when I came across some yummy little biscuits on Everybody Like Sandwiches. I was debating what to have for dinner and had a hankering for some eggs. Since we were also leaving for Toronto for a week (which is where we still are), we had barely anything left in the fridge. When I saw these it was like all the moving pieces came together. Poached eggs over cheesy biscuits - perfect easy dinner. I changed the recipe up a bit to fit what I had on hand, and loved the end result. I think you could really play around with these to find the flavor combination that works for you.
I will for sure be making these again. They have that perfect squishy, biscuity (I can make up words when it's my blog, right?) texture, and are loaded with flavor. Plus they are as easy to make as cookies. Just mix and scoop. And be sure to grab the parchment paper instead of wax paper though...oops! ;)

Culinary karma! Absolutely love it. The biscuits look pretty darn good as well. Have a wonderful day.
that's a really interesting-sounding combination
HAHAHAHA culinary karma! these look delicious! i think i would love mine with a TON of cheesy goodness..
Love your culinary karma. It's so true! These biscuits remind me of the ones from Red Lobster (though I haven't eaten at one since my kid was younger). They look simple and very tasty. I'll have to whip some up for my "Big Kid" who loves this kind of treat.
I love biscuits and eggs and with this combination of cheeses they'd have to be great!
I love recipes where I don't have to run to the store to make them! These sound really delicious.
Delicious sounding biscuits. Gosh, the rosemary must have a very nice and fragrant flavor in there. Delicious!
I love the term "culinary karma", and these biscuits look great. I always get super excited about recipes that I can just make without having to go on a hunt for ingredients!
Great combo.. and the poached eggs with these must have been terrific!!
Yay, so glad you liked them! I haven't tried rosemary yet, but they work wonderfully with chipotle too! Yum.
Oh...those look delicious! Like Red Lobster's cheesy biscuits, but even better!
I like the shopping karma theory!!
Cheesy homemade biscuits, yum! These looks so delicious!
mmm... cheese and rosemary - yummy biscuits, wonderful with a poached egg!
I love cheesy biscuits, and these look SO good with the rosemary you added! I hope you're having fun in Toronto!
Culinary karma, I love it! I do a little happy dance whenever that happens to me. :)
Hope you are having fun in Tornoto!
This is my kind of meal! I love cheesy biscuits. You're going to Toronto! Yaaaay. That'll be fun.
yep, it's most fortunate that you had everything you needed for these delightful little mounds of cheesy goodness. although i've yet to taste a cheese biscuit equivalent in tastiness to the red lobster version, i suspect these would come close. :)
oh yummy.
oh my goodness... this looks delicious! fabulous job!
I love drop biscuits- It's all the yumminess of a biscuit without the work of rolling them out and cutting them.
In fact... we're having omlettes for dinner tonight. I may have to make these!
Culinary Karma - i like that! I know exactly what you mean!
These look so yummy, though not on my diet....will save them for a weekend binge! I want them with my eggs please!
Oh my.... that looks delicious! I love cheese biscuits! I must try this recipe!
I love recipes like this, and serving them simply with eggs sounds perfect.
I do believe in both culinary and shopping karma (I have that same idea about shopping: if it is still there a week later, it was meant to be mine!).
I made these last night! Very good, and super easy. Thanks for passing on the recipe!
They look mighty tasty. Especially as a little sandwich with an egg.
Clever bit on karma :)
