Ok, so I made the GF non beer battered fish the other day and I was so excited but it just didn't sit well with me (The Lil Chef liked it though). I decided to try the shrimp in the same batter and now I'm mad that I just figured this out/thought about doing this!!! This was majorly freaking GOOD!!! I may not do fish again for a WHILE but I will definitely be revisiting the shrimp sometime REALLY soon!!! (I'm thinking New Year's Eve perhaps)

[I AM DEFINITELY CRAVING BISCUITS AND SAUSAGE GRAVY! LOL I'M THINKING THIS WILL BE ON THE MENU FOR NOVEMBER!]  (American breakfast quick bread) 5 Average:  4.2   ( 32  votes) Here is an easy, quick recipe for basic American breakfast biscuits.
