john wayne casserole recipe

Ingredients

2 lbs lean ground beef

1 (1 oz) packet taco seasoning (or 2 tablespoons homemade taco seasoning)

¾ cup water

½ cup sour cream

½ cup light mayonnaise

1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

1 onion, diced

2 cups biscuit mix (I used Bisquick)

1 cup water

2 roma tomatoes, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

1 (4 oz) can green chilis

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray a 9x13" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

Brown ground beef until no longer pink, then add taco seasoning and ¾ cup water and let simmer for 3-4 minutes.

In a medium bowl, mix sour cream, mayo, half of the cheese, and half of the onion together and set aside.

In another bowl, mix together biscuit mix and water to make a soft dough. Press dough into the bottom and ½" up the sides of greased 9x13" pan.

Saute remaining onions and green peppers until barely tender.

On top of the biscuit, layer the remaining ingredients in this order: ground beef, diced tomatoes, green peppers and onions, green chilis, sour cream mixture, and remaining cheddar cheese.

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until edges are slightly browned.
