Ground Beef and Biscuits

 I'm not sure why this was a crock-pot meal. I mean, honestly, it would take 15min to cook in a skillet. If I ever make thsi again, that's what I'm going to do! The beef, veggies and sauce tasted fine- nothing special at all. The biscuits on top- never cooked! I cooked mine for 2 hours (unlike the recommended 1-1.5hrs) and they were still gooey. I pried them off eventually and popped them in the oven for 10min to cook. The kids didn't touch their food at all- but last night I could have fed them chocolate cake and its likely no one would have touched it. They were all in "moods". Brody ate his and I did have seconds, but, I'm pregnant. I was hungry.
