[homemade] creamy chicken and dumpling soup and cheddar potato biscuits.

Made a regular batch of biscuits and added some leftover mashed potatoes to use em up and a little extra flour to even out the sticky texture. They were so fluffy and soft!!!!! Cut them into squares and put a load of cheese on each biscuit before baking.

For the dumplings I used blobs of the extra biscuit dough dropped into the boiling soup and cooked em 10 minutes

Braised beef short rib served over Pommes Aligot (creamy cheesy potatoes). First time doing it, pretty damn good.
