- 1 jar (15 ounces / 425 grams) pizza sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Toppings:
- Pepperoni
- Italian sausage
- Vegetables (optional)
Cooking Essentials:
- Cooking spray or butter for greasing
Instructions
- Transform the baking dish into a pizza lover’s paradise by greasing a 9×13-inch pan thoroughly.
- Deconstruct refrigerated biscuits into bite-sized triangles using a sharp pizza cutter or kitchen knife.
- Create a foundational layer by spreading the quartered biscuit pieces across the entire bottom of the prepared dish.
- Lavishly coat the biscuit canvas with a uniform spread of tangy pizza sauce, ensuring complete coverage.
- Generously blanket the sauced foundation with a fluffy landscape of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Artfully scatter your preferred pizza toppings across the cheesy terrain, maintaining an even distribution.
- Slide the assembled casserole into a preheated 350°F oven, allowing it to bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes.
- Monitor the transformation, watching for golden-brown biscuit edges and bubbling cheese, with special attention to the center’s cooking progress.
- Let the piping hot casserole rest and settle for 5 minutes, allowing flavors to meld and temperature to moderate before serving.
Notes
- Choose fresh, high-quality refrigerated biscuits for the best texture and flavor in your casserole.
- Experiment with different pizza toppings like pepperoni, sausage, bell peppers, or mushrooms to customize the dish to your taste preferences.
- Cut biscuits into uniform quarters to ensure even cooking and consistent bite-sized pieces throughout the casserole.
- For a lighter version, use low-fat cheese and lean protein toppings, or swap regular biscuits for whole wheat varieties to boost nutritional value.
