1 large fresh tomato, chopped and then pressed on a paper towel to absorb excess juice
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup milk
Pinch fresh ground pepper
Combine tomato and basil together. In separate bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add butter and milk and mix well. Add tomato-basil mixture and a pinch of pepper and mix well. Drop tablespoonfuls onto a greased baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes
at 400 degrees or until golden brown. These biscuits are wonderful. Make plenty because they will go fast.
The Skinny: Use low fat milk. The rest of the ingredients are pretty-much essential to this recipe.
