COUNTRY HAM BISCUITS
GREAT BREAKFAST or lunch item! These biscuits may be considered "a southern thing", but they sure are popular! I have carried a plate full to a home where relatives were gathering for a funeral and they got smacked up real quick. I would carry them plain without the dijon mustard because of people's preferences. Great for a man's lunchbox. Very filling and satisfying flavor!
