Ingredients
- 16 oz Refrigerated biscuit dough (e.g., buttermilk biscuits)
- 1 lb Ground beef
- 1 package Taco seasoning
- 0.75 cups Water
- 1 cup Salsa
- 2 cups Shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 0.5 cup Sliced black olives (optional)
- 0.25 cup Diced jalapeños (optional)
- 2 tbsp Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Step 2
Cut the refrigerated biscuit dough into quarters and set them aside.
Step 3
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until thoroughly browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain the excess fat.
Step 4
Add the taco seasoning and water to the cooked ground beef. Stir well and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the quartered biscuit dough pieces with the taco-seasoned beef mixture and salsa. Mix until the dough is evenly coated.
Step 6
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Step 7
Top the mixture with shredded Mexican blend cheese, spreading it across the dish evenly.
Step 8
If using, sprinkle sliced black olives and diced jalapeños on top of the cheese.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuit dough is fully cooked and puffed, and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Step 10
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 11
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro, if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your Mexican Bubble Pizza!
