Upside-down Pizza Casserole

Work has been super busy, so I didn't get home in time to cook. Superhero Steph managed to whip up this delightful dish all while dealing with two cranky kids. It was great!

We used hamburger meat, but Steph wants to try it again with sausage instead. Neither of us likes mushrooms, so we left that out. Steph added green pepper and jalapeno and it ended up great! The biscuits on top were a nice touch.

From what I hear, Connor loved it except for the green pepper part.




Makes 5 servings

1.5 lbs lean ground beef or bulk Italian sausage
1 15-oz can Italian-style tomato sauce
1 4-oz can sliced mushrooms, drained
1/4 cup sliced pitted ripe olives (optional)
1 to 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese or four-cheese pizza blend (4-6 oz)
1 10-oz package refrigerated biscuits (10 biscuits)

1. Preheat oven to 400. In a large skillet cook beef until brown. Drain fat; discard. Stir in tomato sauce, mushrooms, and olives (if using). Heat through. Transfer meat mixture to a 2-quart rectangular baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese.

2. Flatten each biscuit with your hands. Arrange biscuits on top of cheese. Bake, uncovered, for 15-17 minutes or until biscuits are golden.
