My kids are pretty picky.

Wait, let me rephrase.

My daughter is VERY picky.

The older son, however, is not.

But it’s a challenge coming up with something that isn’t tacos or pizza or chicken nuggets that they will eat.

These biscuit sandwiches though did the trick!

They loved them and even loved helping to make them.

But as evidenced by my son, they loved eating them even more!

How to Make: Ham and Cheese Biscuit Recipe

This is so easy to make!

To do it:

1. Prep the biscuits.

Cut the biscuits in half to open them as if they were hamburger buns. Set the biscuit bottoms on a tray lined with foil.

2. Stuff the biscuits.

Layer ham and cheese into the center of the biscuit.

Put ham and cheese onto the bottom of each biscuit. Then place the top of the biscuit on each filled biscuit. Press the sides together to seal the filling into the biscuit.

3. Bake the biscuits.

Press the edges of the biscuits together to make a sealed pouch of ham and cheese.

Bake the biscuits at 350 for 15 to 16 minutes or until the tops of the biscuits are golden. Enjoy!
