Gluten-Free Lasagna and Biscuits Experience

I have not made lasagna from pre-cook lasagna noodles in many years. Since the noodles I used to use that did not have to be cooked before putting the lasagna together contain gluten, I tried some brown rice noodles. Well, you can see my frustration in the picture. Not only did they fall apart, they also stuck to each other. It was completely ridiculous! But they still tasted fine.

I had also picked up a box of Bisquick's Gluten Free version of the original. It cost between $4 and $5 for this little 16 oz box at Publix. I have heard that Walmart also carries it, but I don't know how much they charge.
My husband likes to have bread with his pasta. Since sourdough is no longer being brought into my house (his decision), I thought I'd make some biscuits. I was afraid they weren't done, and thought it strange that they looked more like cookies. I'm not much of a biscuit fan, but they were pretty good. They weren't gritty and still had the nooks and crannies when you opened them up.
I followed the recipe on the box and it used up 2/3 of the mix (mix says they make 10, but I made them into a baker's dozen). So, they were a bit expensive for biscuits, but at least they tasted good.
