"Go Bananas" Banana Bread - soooo yummy!  The mix makes 2 loaves!

Chicken with Garlic Biscuit Casserole (YUM)

So today I made the Banana Bread for the first time.  It smelled soooo good in the oven, I couldn't wait to eat it.  I left out the raisins (I don't care for them) I had some when it was nice and warm out of the oven.... DELICIOUS!  Definitely going to have to buy more of that!  I am taking one loaf to the event tomorrow night to have people try that.... something different.  I took a few pics... they will go up on Facebook :)

I am posting the recipe for the Chicken and Garlic Biscuit Casserole on the DYB site... see below if you want to try it on your own! It came out DELICIOUS! - mmmm garlic :)  I made it for my boyfriend and his family and it was a huge hit!  I used the Garlic and Herb seasoning mix and the Garlic & Onion Biscuit mix. I totally forgot to take a picture of when it was all bubbly out of the oven.  Then everyone digged in..... :(  I will make it again.... and try to remember the photo! haha
