→ For the Casserole
01 -
1 small onion, chopped into tiny pieces
02 -
1 pound of lean ground beef (or you can swap for turkey or sausage)
03 -
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
04 -
1 can (15 ounces) of pizza sauce
05 -
1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
06 -
1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
07 -
Salt and pepper, adjusted to your taste
08 -
1 package (12 ounces) of biscuit dough (such as Pillsbury Grands), cut into quarters
09 -
2 cups of mozzarella cheese, shredded
10 -
1/2 cup of pepperoni slices
11 -
1 cup of cheddar cheese, shredded (optional for a cheesier dish)
12 -
Cooking spray for greasing your baking dish
# Instructions:
01 -
Turn your oven on and set it to 375°F (190°C). Lightly coat a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray.
02 -
Warm up a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the ground beef, onion, and garlic together, stirring often, until the meat is browned and no longer pink. Toss out any extra grease from the pan.
03 -
Mix the pizza sauce, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper into the meat mixture. Stir well so everything combines nicely.
04 -
Gently stir the quartered biscuit pieces into the mixture so they’re coated evenly in the sauce.
05 -
Spoon half of the meat and biscuit mixture into the prepared baking dish. Add half the mozzarella, cheddar, and pepperoni on top. Repeat these layers with the rest of the ingredients.
06 -
Pop the dish into the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. It’s done when the biscuits are golden, puffed, and the cheese is perfectly melted.
07 -
Take the dish out of the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes before slicing it up. This makes serving easier.
