How to Make Cheeseburger Biscuit Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and lightly grease a baking dish.

  3. Drain excess grease, then stir in ketchup and mustard.
  4. Cut biscuits into quarters.
  5. Gently fold biscuit pieces into the beef mixture.

  7. Bake until biscuits are cooked through and cheese is bubbly.

How to Serve It

This dish is hearty on its own, but pairs well with:

  • A simple side salad
  • Steamed green beans or broccoli
  • Fruit for a kid-friendly plate

Leftovers are also great reheated in the air fryer.

Storage & Leftovers

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days
  • Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best texture

Budget-Friendly Tip

Using biscuit dough stretches the beef and helps turn one pound of ground beef into a filling meal for the whole family, perfect for staying on budget.
