Grain-free Basil Garlic Drop Biscuits

I don’t care how healthy I eat, every time I go to a restaurant and they serve bread for an appetizer you know I’m gonna grab a piece!  Especially if its a italian restaurant and they have garlic bread!  I’ve been loving making grain-free bread, so I totally wanted to go savory and make some sort of dinner rolls!  They are semi-garlicky, semi-basily and a whole lotta flavorful!  Add some cheese if you desire, and make these for your next dinner party!  Free of grain and guilt!
