Notes
- This recipe calls for a 12x8 casserole dish. If one is unavailable or if you plan to use a smaller one you may need to halve the recipe or separate into two dishes as meat may not cook through in the times provided.
- This recipe is best prepared with smaller refrigerator biscuits, the ones that typically come in a 10 pack. If using grands sized or larger biscuits, they may need to be partially cooked ahead of time to ensure they are cooked through when added to the top of the casserole.
- If you do not have a biscuit cutter, feel free to use a small glass, knife, or whatever you can find to cut the holes in the center of the biscuits!
