Say salsa bread around my house and people start lining up.  So easy, so simple and so cheesy good. It is always gobbled up.  You can serve it as a side dish, add meat and more veggies for a main dish, or its great for an appetizer or snacks at a football watching  party or tailgate.  Variations are as endless as your imagination, but this is our favorite.

Here’s the recipe:

add green onions, sliced black olives, black beans, corn, salsa, grated cheese, sausage, ground beef, or taco meat. Serve with sour cream and guacamole

BLEU CHEESE, BACON AND PECAN:
Instead of the salsa, onions and cheese cook 6-8 pieces of bacon and crumble. Toss bacon, bleu cheese crumbles, pecan pieces or walnut, with 1/2 c mayo or butter . Gently toss with biscuit pieces and bake as above

ITALIAN:
Eliminate salsa, onions & cheddar. Toss biscuit pieces with chopped proscuitto, pepperoni or salami, chopped artichokes, mayo, sundried tomatoes or diced tomato, Parmesan or mozzarella, 1 tsp Italian seasoning, 1/2 c mayo or Marinara
