Upsidedown Casserole - kid friendly

Looking for an easy throw-it together meal and the kiddos are running around like loonies in a bin? Here's an easy to make and cheap recipe to try. Once again, tailor it to your tastes, or your little ankle-biters. Adults like it too!

canola oil
sliced onion
1⁄2 - 1 lb ground turkey or beef
1 10.5-oz can tomato puree
Worcestershire sauce
Spices: always a staple in my recipes: garlic powder, onion powder, garlic salt
1 can refrigerator biscuits (you know the ones that pop open and scare the crap out of you?)

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Heat the oil in a medium-size skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it is soft and golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the meat and spices and cook, stirring and breaking it up, until browned. Pour in the tomato puree, add a dash or two of Worcestershire sauce, and stir well. Scrape the contents of the skillet into a casserole dish. Place the refrigerator biscuits side by side over the top of the meat mixture. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until the biscuits are browned. To serve, put a serving dish on top of the casserole and invert it, so that the biscuits are on the bottom.


Easy to do, kids love it, and it's always good for leftovers.

Enjoy!
