2 c flour
4 Tbsp shortening (oleo was used in this recipe)
3 tsp baking powder
2/3 c milk
1 tsp salt
Cut the shortening into the dry ingredients until you have a course consistency. Add
enough milk while stirring with a fork to make a soft dough that can be easily
handled. Turn onto a lightly floured board and knead about 20-30 seconds. Roll or
pat out to about 1/2″ to 1″ thickness, cut into round pieces with a cutter or into
squares. If you are making just the biscuits and not the casserole, place them on a
greased pan (leave a space between them if you want them crusty). Bake 450 degrees
for 12-15 min. For the casserole, follow the next instructions.
Place small pieces or cubes of leftover turkey in a casserole dish. Add 1 can cream
of mushroom soup thinned slightly with broth or gravy. You can add olives, fresh
mushrooms, mix in and top with small, unbaked biscuits. Bake in a hot oven about 25
minutes till the biscuits are brown.
