Cheesy Biscuit Lasagna

Cheesy Biscuit Lasagna - Biscuits stuffed with cheese and baked in a meat sauce - all the flavors of lasagna that is ready in under 30 minutes! Everyone LOVED this casserole! Fun  twist to traditional lasagna.

I loved everything about this recipe. It is a quick and easy alternative to lasagna. It has all the flavors of lasagna without all the work. You could even call this Calzone Lasagna.  The biscuits are like little calzones. I used cottage cheese in this recipe. If you don’t like cottage cheese, you can substitute ricotta. You could also add ingredients to the biscuits – peppers, onions, mushrooms would be good.

I browned the sausage and mixed up the cheese mixture the night before. Assembly was a breeze. It only took about 15 minutes from start to finish. I wouldn’t fill the biscuits until you are ready to bake. I have found that they don’t rise as well if you refrigerate them too long. This recipe got two thumbs up at our house. It was even good reheated for lunch.

  1. I'm making this right now. Instead of sausage, I'm making it with ground beef because it is what I had on hand. Simple to put together.

  2. I think I'll try with chicken and then maybe with just veggies (ie. mushrooms, carrots, onions, zucchini, etc). Yum!

  3. Suzanne – the refrigerated biscuits won't rise good if you don't bake them right away. They bake up flat if you store them out of the can in the fridge.

  4. You could assemble and bake the amount you need each night instead of reheating leftovers! I love this!
