Ingredients

Beef Mixture:

  • 1.5 lbs lean ground beef
  • 1 yellow onion diced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 1 10.5 oz can condensed cheddar soup
  • 1 10.5 oz can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese divided

Biscuit Topping:

  • 1 box Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix plus included seasoning packet
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 cups milk
  • ¼ cup butter melted
  • Fresh chopped parsley optional, for garnish

Instructions

Preheat the oven

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

Prepare the ground beef mixture

  • Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and diced onion.
  • Cook, crumbling the beef, until fully browned. Drain any excess grease if needed.
  • Stir in the cheddar soup, cream of mushroom soup, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  • Add 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and stir until melted. Remove from heat.

Assemble the casserole

  • Pour the ground beef mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  • Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top.

Prepare the biscuit topping

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the biscuit mix (without the seasoning packet) with shredded cheddar cheese and milk. Stir until no large lumps remain.
  • Pour the biscuit batter evenly over the beef mixture.

Bake

  • Bake uncovered for 50-55 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown.

Add finishing touches

  • In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the seasoning packet from the biscuit mix.
  • Brush the butter mixture over the biscuit topping.
  • Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes to allow the filling to thicken.

Serve and enjoy!

  • Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

Extra creamy filling: Add an extra splash of milk if you prefer a looser consistency.
Browning too quickly? Cover with foil during baking if the biscuit topping browns before the center is fully cooked.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
