Baking Ted Lasso Biscuits to Survive Monday

I never thought shortbread could be a coping mechanism, but here we are. After a week that felt like a penalty shootout (and I’m the goalie), I decided to channel my inner Ted Lasso and bake those famous biscuits. Spoiler: mine looked more like lumpy bricks than the neat little rectangles from the show, but the smell alone was enough to lift my mood. There’s something weirdly therapeutic about creaming butter and sugar when you’re stressed. Maybe it’s the illusion of control—if only life was as simple as following a recipe. I even wrapped a few up to give to my neighbor, who’s been having a rough time. She smiled for the first time in days. Turns out, kindness (and a lot of butter) really does go a long way. If you’re having a rough one, bake something. Even if it flops, at least you’ll have snacks. #TedLasso #BakingTherapy #ComfortFood #HomemadeBiscuits #MentalHealthMatters #TedLasso #BakingTherapy #ComfortFood #Food #Foodie

Chicken Pot Pie Soup & Pepper Thyme Biscuits

Made a batch of chicken pot pie soup with pepper thyme biscuits last night. The soup starts with sautéed onions, carrots, and celery in a big pot. Once those soften, in goes diced chicken breast and a bit of garlic. I use a mix of chicken broth and a splash of milk for the base, then toss in potatoes and frozen peas. A little flour thickens it up, and I always add a bay leaf for extra flavor. The soup simmers until everything’s tender. For the biscuits, I mix flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme. Cold butter gets cut in, then I add buttermilk just until it comes together. I drop spoonfuls onto a baking sheet and bake until golden. The biscuits come out fluffy with a nice peppery kick from the thyme. Dunking them in the soup is the best part. The whole process takes about an hour, but it’s worth it for the leftovers alone. Definitely recommend using fresh thyme if you can get it—makes a difference. #ChickenPotPieSoup #HomemadeBiscuits #ComfortFood #SoupSeason
