What's In it:

  • 1.5 lb Lean Ground Beef
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper (Seeded and Chopped)
  • 1 Yellow Onion chopped
  • 3 tbsp Spice Beast Power Mex Seasoning
  • 2.5 Cups biscuit Mix 
  • 1 cup of water
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 4 oz can of diced green chilies (pick your brand and heat level)
  • 1.5 cups Fiesta Blend shredded cheese
  • 1 tsp Spice Beast Jacked Garlic & Onion
  • 1 green onion (diced)
  • 1/2 cup Salsa (pick your brand and heat level)
  • dash Old Boney Mountain Grotto Dust
  • Dash Spice Beast Beast Sauce (or your favorite hot sauce)

 

How to make it:

  1. Preheat Oven to 350
  2. Place ground beef in skillet and cook until it is no longer pink, draining the fat as you cook. (You can save time by working on step 3 while beef is cooking)
  3. Whisk your biscuit mix with water in a mixing bowl (time to get your hands dirty as mixing dough with your hands is extremely effective.)
  4. Spray casserole dish with cooking spray then line the dish with the dough. (Make sure you get all the way to the edges). Bake the dough for 5-8 minutes until its set or lightly golden. Leave oven on and set at 350
  5. Once beef is no longer pink, add the chopped onions, chopped bell pepper, Power Mex and optional dash of Grotto Dust to the skillet and cook/stir for approx 4 minutes. Remove from stove when cooked.
  6. Add the contents of the skillet to the casserole dish spreading evenly all the way to the edges.
  7. In a medium mixing bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, drained green chilies, ¾ cup shredded cheese and Jacked Garlic & Onion. Mix well. Carefully spread sour cream mixture as a layer on top of the ground beef mixture.
  8. Add dollops of salsa randomly over the layer of sour cream (no need to spread) and add remaining shredded cheese over casserole
  9. Place in oven (which you left on), uncovered. Bake for 30 minutes until warm and bubbly.
  10. Before serving, sprinkle chopped green onion and dashes of hot sauce over casserole.

Pro tip: The casserole will hold its shape better when cutting if you let it cool a little before serving.
