Ingredients
  

Biscuit Mixture
  • 1 package Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix Provides savory flavor and flaky texture.
  • 2/3 cup Water Hydrates the biscuit mix.
  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese (Shredded from a Block) Avoids additives from pre-shredded cheese.

  • 1 medium Yellow Onion (Diced) Adds sweetness and flavor.
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder Intensifies flavor.
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder Adds depth and richness.
  • 1/2 tsp Salt Enhances flavor.
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper Adjust to taste.
  • 1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup (Low Sodium) Keeps casserole heart-healthy.
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream (Full Fat) Adds creaminess and richness.
Topping

  • 1 tbsp Cheddar Bay Garlic Herb Blend Substitute with dried parsley and garlic powder if needed.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the Cheddar Bay biscuit mix, water, and one cup of shredded cheese. Stir gently just until combined, then let sit for a few minutes.
Cooking Meat
  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and diced onion, cooking until meat is browned and onions softened, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  2. Drain excess grease, then season the mixture with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
Combine Ingredients
  1. Stir in cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and the remaining cheddar cheese until fully incorporated.
Assembly
  1. Drop the biscuit mixture onto the meat filling by spoonfuls, leaving space for even cooking.
Baking
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Bake for 20-30 minutes until biscuits are golden and cooked through.
  2. Mix melted butter with the Cheddar Bay Garlic Herb Blend and brush over the hot biscuits.

Notes

This casserole stores well in the refrigerator for several days and can be reheated in the oven. For lower calorie options, use lean ground beef or turkey. For gluten-free, apply a gluten-free biscuit mix.
