Cuisine: Mexican / Tex-Mex / American
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 35 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Servings: 6

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 12 ounces (1 tube) refrigerated country biscuits dough (10 biscuits)
• 1 ounce (1 packet) taco seasoning
• 16 ounces (1 jar) salsa
• 2 bell peppers, diced (I used red and yellow)
• 1 cup red onion, diced
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 3 green onions, chopped
• sour cream, for serving (optional)

Here's how to make it:

1. Brown the ground beef with the taco seasoning, chopped onion and peppers. Once cooked, transfer to a large mixing bowl and add salsa. Stir well.
2. Cut each biscuit into six pieces. Place half the biscuit pieces into a sprayed lasagna dish and cover with half the beef mixture. Sprinkle with cheese. Repeat layers. Sprinkle the top with the green onion. (For a fun change of pace, use green salsa instead of red salsa.)
3. Loosely cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees F (if making immediately). If refrigerated, increase bake time to 45 minutes, then remove foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes. Allow to rest 5 minutes before serving. Top with a dollop of sour cream, if desired. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat in the microwave.
