Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 pounds lean ground beef
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 1 ounce taco seasoning mix
- 2 1/2 cups biscuit mix
- 1 cup water
- Cooking spray
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 4 ounces diced green chiles, drained
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (Fiesta blend), divided
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup mild salsa
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook ground beef until no longer pink. Drain excess fat.
- In a mixing bowl, combine biscuit mix and water until blended. Spray a 9×13-inch casserole dish and press dough evenly into the bottom. Bake 5–8 minutes until set and lightly golden. Keep oven on.
- Add chopped onion and red bell pepper to the cooked beef. Cook about 4 minutes. Stir in taco seasoning and remove from heat.
- Spread beef mixture evenly over the baked biscuit layer.
- In a bowl, mix sour cream, mayonnaise, green chiles, 3/4 cup shredded cheese, and garlic powder until smooth. Spread over beef layer.
- Spoon salsa evenly over the top without spreading. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top.
- Bake uncovered for 30 minutes until hot and bubbly.
Notes
- Drain beef well to avoid excess grease in the casserole.
- Use mild or medium salsa depending on heat preference.
- Let rest 5–10 minutes before slicing for cleaner servings.
