This casserole was delicious! Instead of the usual (robotic) "thank you Mom, this is good" I got "Wow! This is really good!" Hearing that usually makes my day and makes all the hard work worth it. I didn't change a thing. Thanks. :) **update** I've made this 3x now and we prefer the DelMonte brand sauce. It's got a little more "zing" I guess than the Manwich brand. Manwich seems a little bitter or something.
Very easy and tastes great. A snap when your in a hurry. I didn't have any garlic salt but just add a teaspoon or so of garlic powder and it works just fine. Also kids love it!
I adjusted this recipe to substitute healthier choices. I used half the amount of ground turkey and substituted chopped zucchini onions garlic chopped red pepper and spinach for the other half of ground meat. (This is a great way to stretch your meat budget plus get added vegetables into your family.) I also made my own sloppy joe sauce because I do not buy canned. Instead of garlic salt I used garlic powder (we're watching our salt intake). I also used 2% sharp cheddar cheese. I did not care for this but my three men ate almost all of it. I got such a screaming deal on canned biscuits by couponing my husband was gleeful to have them in this casserole. This was a great way for my boys to get a comfort food favorite of theirs and a great way to make a homemade substitute with healthier ingredients and added vegetables plus it was quick! I'll make this again.
before browning beef, i chopped a medium zucchini. added to beef and browned. followed recipe after that. great
I made this last Friday night. It was very simple to make & tastes great!! I was smart & greased the bottom of the 9x13" baking dish before putting in the biscuits however. I doubled the amount of hamburger used since I knew 1 lb wasn't going to be enough--glad I did!! I kept the rest of the recipe the same though. My husband doesn't usually care for casseroles but he really liked this one! Wish I could've found the Del Monte sloppy joe mix with mesquite in our store as I think that would've tasted better than the Manwich brand. But I will definitely be making this recipe again!
Very cheap tasty easy and quick. Used half of a red bell pepper and garlic powder. However the biscuits stuck and the pan had to be soaked overnight so I recommend using cooking spray. I also did not care for this reheated.
LOVED! Didn't use the onions or peppers as my picky kids will barely tolerate the veggies in the canned sauce but everyone gobbled it up! Thank you for the great idea!
This was great! I was desperate for something that I could make out of what I had on hand and this fit the bill. I used ground turkey instead of beef and rather than a can of sauce I used the recipe for Sloppy Joes II which is my go-to for sloppy joes. It took me seven biscuits to cover the bottom of the pan. I will make this again and maybe add additional veggies next time. Thanks for sharing!
I made mine with one can of biscuits also in a 8in round pan. Didn't have shredded cheese so I just put some sliced on top. Turned out just fine! Great for making if you're out of buns or just want a new take on manwhich. I'm sure kids would love it.
