#835: Bubble Up Pizza


One of Brian's favorite things to eat is Bubble Up Casserole. This recipe is basically the same as what I usually make except it has pepperoni in it.  Needless-to-say, he really enjoyed it.  I say "HE" enjoyed it because I made it on a weekend when most of us were recovering from a mild version of the flu (so we weren't in the mood to eat it).  I ended up halving this recipe and got 4 nice size servings out of it (from an 8x8 pan). 

1 pound 96% lean ground beef
2 teaspoons onion powder, or 1 onion, chopped
16 ounces tomato sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
15 ounces refrigerated buttermilk biscuits, buttermilk
Add whatever typical pizza toppings you like, green pepper, turkey pepperoni, mushrooms, etc.

1 1/4 cups part skim milk mozzarella cheese, shredded

Preheat oven to 350 F. In skillet, brown meat over medium high heat until browned, stirring to crumble. Stir in onion powder, tomato sauce, basil, garlic and Italian seasoning.

Add quartered biscuits; stir gently until biscuits are covered with sauce. Mix in toppings of your choosing. Spoon mixture into a 9×13 inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake for 25 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese; bake an additional 10 minutes or until biscuits are done. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Apparently this recipe was found on a weight watchers board and is 10 ww+ pts per serving.  I cannot stand 96% lean ground beef or turkey so I used 93% lean instead.
