Mexican Filled Biscuits

When I first got married, one of my biggest fears was knowing what to make for dinner every night without getting bored, so I'm constantly trying new things. I'm really grateful to my mom because she could always look in the cupboard or refrigerator and figure out what to make out of thin air, and a little bit of that wisdom was passed down to me.
I would love to be OCD about my organization, and it actually kills me that it's this messy, but I just have no time, as you can see from this picture of my refrigerator...

So this evening I was trying to decide what to make I took a little inspiration from this recipe I made a few weeks ago ----> Pillsbury Buffalo Chicken Croissants. I knew in my fridge I had some leftover soy 'ground beef', a thing of refrigerated biscuit dough, and always fixin's for Mexican food, so I pulled these things out of the fridge to decide exactly how I was going to throw it together...

Next I pulled out my Mexican seasonings : Adobo, Chili Powder, Cumin, and Coriander, plus salt & pepper and seasoned the 'ground beef'. Next I added the leftover black beans and corn mixture from the other day and a little salsa. I actually didn't end up using the bell pepper or onion yet. * You can use taco seasoning mix if you dont have these spices!

Then I put a little cheese with a little of the filling on a biscuit that I flattened out with my hands,

Then I pinched it toward the middle... This actually didn't work as well as I would have liked because the filling kept falling out, so I got out the rolling pin after the 1st few. You can see below, the one on the right was rolled out by hand, the one on the left was rolled with the rolling pin.

Topped with a sprinkle of cheese and baked in the oven, a little longer than the actual biscuit packaging suggested since they are filled biscuits

I needed a veggie, so I cooked some brussel sprouts... Ill blog about that another day! For now, I hope you enjoyed the first recipe! Keep checking back!
