Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray or grease a 9x13 baking dish and set it aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the baking mix with water. Stir until a soft dough forms.
- Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the biscuit crust firms and slightly puffs (Note: it doesn't need to be completely cooked or brown at this point). Remove the dish from the oven and set aside.
- While the dough is baking, cook the ground beef and onions in a large skillet over medium heat until the beef is browned and the onions are soft (about 8-10 minutes).
- Drain any excess fat. Stir in the salt, pepper, and taco seasoning. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the whipped cream cheese, mayonnaise, 1 cup of shredded cheese, Rotel tomatoes, and additional green chilies (if using).
- Stir until thoroughly combined.
- Spread the ground meat filling evenly over the biscuit layer.
- Evenly spread the cheese mixture over the ground beef layer.
- Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese evenly over the top.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the top is golden and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and sliced jalapenos (if desired) before serving.
Notes
- Make a Bisquick substitute by combining 2 ½ cups of flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Warm in a 350°F oven for 15 minutes or microwave individual portions.
- Wrap in foil and freeze. Reheat in the oven at 350°F until heated through.
