Potato Hash with Drop Biscuits

I began with 3 small russet potatoes that I peeled and cut up to bite size pieces. Then I cooked them in some pork broth that I had. It is not necessary to cook them in a broth if you do not happen to have any on hand. You can always cook them in water with whatever seasonings you choose.

Keep an eye on these and stir frequently until they are fork tender. I then will add two leftovers that I had in the fridge. It is important to note that I almost NEVER throw anything out. Leftovers are a majority of what I use for the next day meal and will obviously cut down on your cost of groceries.

I added about 3/4 cup of re-fried beans that had a little leftover shredded cheddar. The other bowl had leftover veggie blend from the night before. You could use whatever you had on hand to add. This is the beauty of making a hash. Anything that would taste good with potatoes could be added. Items I have used are any leftover veggies raw or cooked, cheese, rice, onions.

To go with dinner I decided to make some drop biscuits. I like to use the simple recipe from Betty Crocker. I will post below:

2 cups flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, 3 tablespoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup shortening, 3/4 cup milk. Preheat oven to 450 and cook for about 12 minutes. There is no need to grease the pan they should not stick.

After I incorporated the leftovers and cooked for about 10 minutes this is what it looked like.

The above is the finished product. I added some salsa and a little low fat sour cream on top. I did not calculate the cost of this dish, but I know it would be super cheap. There was enough for about 4 servings. There were obviously biscuits left for the next day. I used those for breakfast!
