Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds lean ground beef
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 1 ounce taco seasoning mix
- 2 1/2 cups biscuit mix (like Bisquick)

- 1/2 cup mild salsa
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉.
- Cook ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat until no longer pink. Drain excess fat.
- Prepare biscuit dough by combining biscuit mix and water. Press into a greased 9×13-inch casserole dish and bake 5–8 minutes until lightly golden.
- Add chopped onion and red bell pepper to cooked beef. Stir in taco seasoning. Remove from heat.
- Spread beef mixture evenly over baked biscuit layer.

Notes
- Use mild or hot salsa depending on spice preference.
- Fiesta blend cheese gives great color and flavor, but any shredded cheddar works.
- Great for potlucks or meal prep—reheat well.
