Meatball Casserole

As I mentioned in my last post, I haven’t been cooking much because I’ve been so busy, so yesterday I decided to go through my Pinterest folders to see if I had saved any super easy dinner ideas. I found this recipe for meatball casserole which is so quick and easy it’s almost embarrassing! I used frozen, store bought meatballs and sauce, but made my own drop biscuits from Betty Crocker and topped them with the garlic butter recipe I found for a copycat Red Lobster biscuits. OMG!  The garlic butter biscuits are soooo good! I couldn’t stop eating them. They really make the dish. The original recipe makes a lot of spread so I only made half and I still had lots left over.  This casserole recipe is great because you can tailor it to your family’s taste. You can experiment with different meatballs, sauce, and biscuits to see which one you like best.

Instead of posting the whole recipe I will include a link to the original blog. Basically you need a package of meatballs, a jar of spaghetti sauce, a container of frozen biscuits and some shredded cheese. You cook or heat the meatballs, cover with sauce, top with cheese, and finally the biscuits. Pop it in the oven at 450 until the biscuits are golden brown. If you’re using the garlic butter, spread that on after the dish is cooked. It’s that easy. http://roxanashomebaking.com/upside-meatball-casserole-recipe/
