Quick and Easy Pizza Pot Pie
"This comforting, kid-friendly Quick and Easy Pizza Pot Pie is the perfect weeknight dinner to please your entire family. Like an upside-down pizza, it’s full of beef, pepperoni, sauce, cheese, and vegetables – all topped with a biscuit crust. It’s a fast, fun twist on a classic favorite! Is there anything better than a hot casserole for dinner on a cold winter evening? How about a casserole that can be prepped in advance (even the night before!), and that utilizes a couple of convenience items for faster and easier cooking? After all, even when we’re busy, it’s nice to be able to sit down to dinner as a family. It doesn’t happen every night, but we do our best to come together multiple times each week for a simple meal — and this Pizza Pot Pie makes everyone smile!"
Notes*I like to use the mini biscuits because they cook faster, and that way you don't have biscuits that get too dark on top but are still raw in the center when the baking time is done. If you use the larger biscuits, just be sure to cover the casserole with foil about halfway through baking so that the biscuits don't get burned on top. You might also need to add some extra cooking time to make sure that the larger biscuits are cooked through.
Cooking Just for Two? You can cut this recipe in half! Just use 1/2 lb. of beef, 1 can of mini biscuits, and cut all of the other ingredients in half as well. Bake the casserole in an 8-inch square baking pan. The cooking instructions remain the same.

This is kind of an upside-down pizza, with the crust on top, and all the goodies below. I'd like to give this a try, but I'd probably use a mixture of half ground beef and half sausage for the meat. I normally have pepper and onion on my pizza whenever possible, so I'd definitely include that. I'd also add a bit more cheese on top of the biscuits before they were finished baking. Definitely planning on trying this out.
