Casserole Pizza

Hey guys! I have lots of things to update, but the little time I have this week have been devoted to school. It’s killing me right now…and all I can think about is cooking! Haha, I really shouldn’t even been updating now seeing how I have a test to study for, a paper to write, and a project to research for, but whatever. Really sometimes I think to myself… I should just cook or cater for a living! Or something that doesn’t require me to do anymore school :P. Oh well, such is life. I only have one semester, so I can definitely suffer through it :D. Anyway, enough ranting…let’s take to tasty part of my life:

Ingredients:

2 cans (12oz) golden layer buttermilk biscuits (Pillsbury Grands! Jr)

1 jar (15oz) pizza sauce

2 cups mozzarella cheese

your favorite pizza toppings – cooked sausage, turkey pepperoni, peppers, mushrooms

cooking spray

Method:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Cut biscuits into quarters and place in medium bowl.  Toss biscuits with pizza sauce.  Add pizza topping and half of the cheese.  Toss until well blended.  Spray a 9×13 pan with cooking spray.  Pour biscuit mixture into pan and top with remaining cheese.  Bake at 375 for 25-30 minutes, or until biscuits are done.

Notes:

This recipe kind of reminded me of the dump cake recipe that I posted a few weeks back. I really liked it, but I wish it were more specific on how much topping to put in. I didn’t want to add too much because I didn’t want the topping flavor to be too overpowering, but I guess since it was broad they couldn’t really be specific. I added garlic and pepperoni to mine, but the flavors weren’t really that prominent. I added probably about 1 and 1/2 tsp of garlic and 7 slices of pepperoni (chopped up). I’ll definitely up the amount that I do next time. Also, I read incorrectly about cutting into the dough into quarters until after had mixed into a lot of ingredients, so I just started ripping up the dough in the mixing bowl. Still came out awesomely :D. Also, I think I am going to throw in some oregano next time. It just makes sense…but it slipped my mind. Cook it and lemme know what you thought! Happy cooking!
