Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until fully cooked, then drain excess grease.
Add diced onion and garlic to the skillet and cook for 3–4 minutes until softened.
Stir in Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Reduce heat to low and mix in cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and milk until warmed through and creamy.
Fold in cooked pasta and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
Transfer the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
Prepare Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix as directed on the package.
Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough evenly over the casserole.
Sprinkle remaining cheddar cheese over the top.
Bake for 25–30 minutes until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through.
Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Switch ground beef for turkey or sausage for variety.

Add frozen peas or spinach for extra veggies.

Use jalapeño cheddar biscuits for a spicy twist.

Cover with foil when reheating to retain moisture.

For gluten-free version, use gluten-free pasta, biscuit mix, and soup.
