Notes

  • Spreading the biscuit dough. I like to either spray my hands or a spatula with non-stick cooking spray to help spread the biscuit dough in the casserole dish. Try to spread it out into an even layer.
  • Shred the cheese. I recommend shredding your own cheese for the best taste.
  • Let it rest. Let the casserole rest for about 10 minutes before cutting. This helps the casserole stay together.
