Ingredients

  • 2 (12 oz.) tubes biscuits
  • 1 1/2 lb. hamburger
  • 15 oz. jar spaghetti sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups Mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Grease a 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan.
  2. Quarter the biscuits and place them in the bottom of the pan to cover the entire surface.
  3. Mix the browned hamburger with the spaghetti sauce.
  4. Pour the hamburger mixture over the biscuits in the pan.
  5. Bake for 25 minutes at 400°F.
  6. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top of the baked mixture.
  7. Bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Tips & Substitutions

For added flavor, consider using Italian seasoning or garlic powder in the hamburger mixture. You can substitute turkey or chicken for the hamburger for a lighter version. If you don't have spaghetti sauce, marinara or pizza sauce will work as well. For a vegetarian option, replace the meat with sautéed vegetables or your favorite meat substitute.

Serving Suggestions

Serve bubble pizza hot from the oven with a side salad, such as a refreshing Lotsa Layers Salad, to balance the richness. For a fun twist, offer toppings like sliced olives, pepperoni, or bell peppers on the side for guests to customize their slices. This dish also pairs well with a light dessert like fruit salad.

Storage & Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the bubble pizza in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes, or until warmed through. You can also microwave individual portions for quick reheating, but the oven will keep the crust crispy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use frozen biscuits instead of refrigerated ones?

Yes, frozen biscuits can be used, but they should be thawed before cutting and placing them in the pan. Follow the package instructions for thawing, and then proceed with the recipe as directed.

What can I do if I don't have a 13 x 9-inch pan?

If you don't have a 13 x 9-inch pan, you can use two round cake pans or a similar-sized baking dish. Just be aware that baking time may vary slightly depending on the depth of your pan and the amount of ingredients used.

Can I make bubble pizza ahead of time?

Absolutely! You can prepare the dish up to the point of baking, cover it tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, remove the wrap and add a few extra minutes to the baking time.
