And I know he would’ve loved these soft and flaky, buttery, lovely biscuits. Tennis anything always reminds me of my dad. And after being hot and sweaty all day, a salty, buttery biscuit tastes amazing.Īnd besides all that. Weird, right? Snatching biscuits? But those food moments when something tastes exceptionally good, those moments always stay with your taste bud menories. We would prance away with napkins filled with 2-3 biscuits each and an armful of honey and butter packets.
It is pretty comical to think about in retrospect. So us three sneaky girls would wait until everyone had eaten and scavenge through the straggling, unclaimed lunch boxes. I think I was doing my childhood “leaning towards vegetarian” thing, not sure about the other girls. But for some reason we never really ate the chicken. So they would serve us lunch every day and often times KFC was the sponsor. Buttery, flaky biscuits drizzled in sweet honey or coconut nectar or maple syrup always remind me of those summers. So what in the world does all this have to do with today’s recipe? Well, just one thing. We would fawn over the cute tennis players and even hound them for pictures and autographs around the last days of the tournament. And we saw the Bryan Brothers come through too. I have a Polaroid photo with him somewhere in my piles and piles of old tennis photos. In 1993, I was 12, Patrick Rafter was the winner.
Once when I was just 8 years old and then again when I was around 11-14ish I think. I think I probably did 4-5 summers ball girling.
#POPEYES BISCUIT VEGETARIAN FREE#
It was a long day with zero pay - free meals and swanky T-shirt and tennis shoes - and yet between all the fuss and endless complaining from our lips, it is truly one of my favorite memories. We would work match after match, be the first ones to arrive, alongside the referees, and the last to leave once the match was over. And sometimes, those super fast serves would pelt me right in the hip or shoulder. Once in a while I would miss a ball and get yelled at by the umpire or a grumpy player. You know, the tiny humans who run all over the court during a match, collecting balls and standing in the hot sun for hours – sweaty towels tossed in our faces, red-faced tennis players pointing at us to refill their water bottles. Funny enough, it is currently called the Nordic Naturals Challenger, one of my fave brands for vegan omegas, but anyways.Įvery summer, two of my best friends and I would be ball girls. It is “the longest running Men’s Challenger in the U.S.” According to the website. Every summer, our local tennis club would host the Cal Open – always called something different based on the main sponsor. One of my favorite memories from childhood is of being a ballgirl. Popeye would devour these and you will too!!. I’m also sharing a story of why these biscuits remind me of one of my favorite childhood memories ever. I love these served alongside soup or just served with a generous drizzle of maple syrup or coconut nectar on top. So this is a sneaky way to add some greens to your meal. Today I am sharing my recipe for Flaky, Buttery Vegan Popeye Biscuits! These vegan, heart-shaped gems just happen to be loaded with spinach.
Bake till golden brown – about 15 minutes.My scone-baking kick continues! But today, I’m doing biscuits. * NOTE* This dough is extremely sticky so you might need to use some additional flour.Ĭut the dough into 4 biscuits and place on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly flour a surface and knead the dough for 1 minute or 2. Slowly pour in Sprite, mix until it looks like dough. In a medium size bowl mix sour cream and Bisquick together. Make sure to follow Budget Savvy Diva on Facebook 🙂 So simple to make – light and fluffy just like the ones from Popeyes.Įveryday at 1 pm PST/ 4pm EST Budget Savvy Diva posts a NEW RECIPE 🙂 I might miss this time every now or then – but I know you understand
