     Very easy with great flavor! I make them and serve them with Bob Evans sausage gravy: my husband says he never needs to order biscuits and gravy when we're out for breakfast because these are so good. - 5/17/14

     So easy to make and so very good! Will make again - I'm so glad to have an alternative to shortening. - 8/7/13

     I always thought that you had to use shortening to make good biscuits, so I hadn't tried to make them myself until now. These biscuits are awesome! I will definitely make again. - 6/16/13

     Wow this recipe is a keeper. I took the adviceof some others and made pigs in a blanket for my one year old and both me and her loved it. I will have to make some for my hubby now. - 3/23/13

     Great base for breakfast today for Father's Day. I made the dough and divided into 2 bowls. I made 4 pigs in a blanket using cooked sausage links and wrapping the dough. The other I mixed in cinnamon and sugar and dropped into 4 blobs on baking sheet. I made gravy and served with scrambled eggs.

     Excellent ease of baking. However, it might be helpful to include a general baking time - I nearly burned 'em! - 1/4/10

     LOVED these biscuits! Made a double batch for my family tonight and they are all gone!! Gonna have to triple it next time as these would also make a great breakfast. - 11/3/08

     These were great! So simple to make. I'll never buy Pillsbury biscuits again.

    I tried these again with Silk soy milk instead of regular milk, and they were even better! - 8/25/08

     I was looking for a quick, simple, healthy and tasty recipe. I must cook a quick breakfast several times a day. With this great recipe, I pop'em in the oven, cut the fruit, flip the bacon, scramble the eggs and have it all on the table in 15 minutes! (Cut in frozen Smart Balance and Drop) - 2/29/08
