The Master Mix Homemade Bisquick Substitute
This recipe is in response to a discussion on the boards about bisquick. Bisquick is apparently not available in the country where the originator of the thread lives. I prefer to use this in recipes that call for 'bisquick' rather than purchase it, myself. If stored in the freezer, this will keep for several months. I hope you find this as handy as i do, since i could never keep 'bisquick' on hand before. If i recall correctly, i think this came from one of my make a mix cookery cookbooks.
