Veggie Biscuit Casserole

I know for me, the word "Casserole" sounds unappetizing. But this recipe has Siracha and Pilsbury biscuits in it. AND that sounds AMAZING to me!! This recipe is a keeper for those who have kids or having a couple friends over for dinner. Of course you don't have to use Siracha if you are not into spice. I made a few substitutes of course to cut some of the calories from the original recipe. Swapping olive oil for butter, LIGHT alfredo sauce instead of original and almond mile instead of whole milk. 





Ingredients:

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 red bell pepper
1/2 diced onion
1 can of corn
1 can of green beans
15 oz light alfredo sauce
1 cup almond milk
1-2 teaspoons Siracha
dash of pepper
8-10 original biscuits. (if you can find wheat use those)
2 tablespoons parmesean cheese

Preheat oven to 375
Grease a baking dish. I used 8x8
Saute onion and bell pepper in olive oil for 5 minutes.
Add beans, corn, alfredo sauce, milk, Siracha and black pepper.
Bring to a simmer and wait till thickens a little
Pour into baking dish
Cut biscuits into halves and layer around the rim of the baking dish onto of the veggie mix
Sprinkle with parmesean cheese and place in oven for 15-20 minutes untill biscuits are golden brown.










NOTE: Serves about 10 people and is about 250 calories per serving.
