Diana 1234's Journal, 21 April 2024

Not too surprising...we went to Red Lobster on Friday. I saw on the news that they are going to be closing their doors. They are blaming the high prices of seafood and the specials they offer ( like shrimp and lobster specials) as to the reason why I had gotten a gift card for Christmas so we decided we better use it before it was too late. I did have skewed grilled shrimp and broccoli but I couldn't resist their cheddar biscuits. I will hopefully work this off in a few days.

YOH, I too had not been there in a hot minute but since we had the gift card I didn’t want it to go to waste. The cheddar biscuits didn’t disappoint..lol. I usually like to go to local places. I feel like it’s important to support small businesses. There are a ton of famous chef owned restaurants here that are good as well but mostly on the Strip. We don’t go to those as often as the Strip is always so crowded and we find the restaurants very overpriced! 💜

Well deserved, Diana. You'll work that off in no time. And cheddar biscuits so worth it in my book :)

I wonder if cheddar biscuits would be hard to replicate?

I wouldnt think so, Hippie.

Liv, I know! It’s sad how many places are closing their doors!💜. Windy and Ancient Hippie , Thank you and AH, there is a copycat recipe I’ve made years ago using Bisquick. They were good but were much heavier and dense than the ones we got at Red Lobster. Maybe check Pinterest? 💜

Ancient Hippie I have seen red lobster cheddar biscuit mix in supermarkets. Right next to bisquick.

there's a keto cheddar biscuit recipe made with almond flour that's delicious 😋 🤩

I think that when I am at Red Lobster I give myself permission to enjoy them...if I make them it is not the same LOL

Liv, I second that!💜💜

SD3, I bet those made with almond flour are delicious! I rarely eat bread so for me the biscuits are a rare treat. 🩷🩷😀

Just got a news update that, ready for this, red lobster is considering filing for bankruptcy. Weird timing right? 
21 Apr 24 by member: Yearofhealth2023
Otb, Yes, those biscuits are probably the majority of the gain...I couldn't help myself! 😀 YOH, That is strange timing for sure!

Use buttermilk to make your biscuits, it makes a lighter, fluffier biscuit.
