Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this dish ahead of time?

What can I use instead of hamburger meat?
Ground turkey or chicken are excellent alternatives if you're looking for a leaner option. You can also use plant-based meat substitutes for a vegetarian version. Just make sure to adjust the cooking time as needed.
Can I freeze the Cheesy Biscuit Lasagna?
Absolutely! You can freeze the assembled dish before baking. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil. When you're ready to enjoy it, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and then bake as directed.
