Ingredients
Instructions
- Cook ground beef in a frying pan until browned.
- Open the canned biscuits and flatten each one with your hand.
- Spread the cooked ground beef on the flattened biscuits and pour tomato sauce over it.
- Sprinkle grated cheese on top and bake until the biscuits are golden brown.
Tips & Substitutions
For a quicker version, use pre-cooked ground beef or substitute with turkey for a lighter option. You can also experiment with different sauces like barbecue or pesto. Add veggies like bell peppers or onions for extra flavor. Make sure to flatten the biscuits evenly for consistent cooking. If you want a crispy crust, pre-bake the biscuits for a few minutes before adding toppings.
Serving Suggestions
These personal pizzas are great for a casual meal or party. Serve them with a fresh salad or some garlic bread for a complete dinner. Consider pairing with a light dipping sauce, such as ranch or marinara. They also go well with a side of seasoned fries or a simple vegetable platter. Enjoy with a cold beverage for a fun meal.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover personal pizzas in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes until warmed through and the cheese is melty again. You can also use a microwave, but the crust may lose its crispiness.
