Ingredients

• 16 ounces Refrigerated biscuit dough
• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 packet Taco seasoning mix
• 0.25 cup Water
• 1 can (10 ounces) Diced tomatoes with green chiles
• 0.75 cup Sour cream
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.25 cup Green onions, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Jalapeños, sliced (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray or oil.

Step 2

Cut the refrigerated biscuit dough into quarters and set aside.

Step 3

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until no longer pink, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.

Step 4

Stir in the taco seasoning mix and 1/4 cup of water, cooking for 2-3 minutes until the beef is fully coated and the water is mostly absorbed.

Step 5

Add the diced tomatoes with green chiles (do not drain) to the skillet and stir to combine. Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sour cream until fully incorporated.

Step 7

Spread half of the cut biscuit dough pieces evenly across the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.

Step 8

Pour the beef mixture over the biscuit pieces, spreading it out into an even layer.

Step 9

Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the beef mixture.

Step 10

Top with the remaining biscuit dough pieces, spreading them out evenly.

Step 11

Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese on top, followed by the chopped green onions and optional sliced jalapeños for added heat.

Step 12

Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 13

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
