Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet
  • 1 Cooking spoon
  • 1 9x13 baking dish
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Knife and cutting board

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Extra lean ground turkey
  • 1 15 oz can Sloppy joe sauce
  • 1 6 oz. can Pilsbury Grands Buttermilk Biscuits
  • 1 cup Reduced-fat colby jack cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup Bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 cup Onion, diced
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
  • Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Cook until the turkey is browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Stir in the canned sloppy joe sauce and bring to a simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Remove from heat.
  • Transfer the sloppy joe mixture to a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  • Sprinkle the shredded reduced-fat Colby Jack cheese evenly over the top of the sloppy joe mixture.
  • Separate the Pillsbury Grands Biscuits and cut each biscuit into quarters. Arrange the biscuit pieces on top of the cheese layer in a single layer.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

For added veggies, consider adding diced mushrooms, zucchini, or spinach to the turkey mixture.
This bake can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator before baking.
