Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 14.5 ounces canned diced tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 16 ounces refrigerated biscuit dough
• 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain excess grease if needed.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef, cooking for 3-4 minutes until the onion is softened.

Step 4

Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and paprika, stirring well to combine.

Step 5

Stir in the canned diced tomatoes (including their juices) and tomato paste. Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Reduce the heat and mix in the softened cream cheese until fully melted and incorporated. Remove the skillet from heat.

Step 7

Transfer the beef mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 8

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture in an even layer.

Step 9

Open the refrigerated biscuit dough and arrange the biscuits on top of the cheese. Make sure the biscuits are evenly spaced.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top and cooked through.

Step 11

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 12

Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.
