I love comforting meals like this Turkey Sausage Biscuit Casserole. I almost want to call it a throwback meal. My mom tells me we used to eat a taco version of this that had taco meat underneath, a layer of cheese, and biscuits on top, I think. I don’t remember it. Which is weird because I feel like I’ve been in love with food all of my life, so how do I not remember a meal we ate all the time?! This casserole is super easy and I love making it in my cast iron skillet. Not a fan of canned biscuits? Easily use your favorite recipe for drop biscuits instead!
So, how’s it taste?
It kind of tastes like pizza! After the first few bites, I was wishing I had added some bell pepper and red pepper flakes. Even some pepperoni! It looks heavy on the biscuits, and it is, but the ratio is just perfect. When I eat a slice, I serve it upside down. The cheesy biscuits are on the bottom and I spoon the sausage mixture over the top. One slice is really hearty and under 350 calories. The biscuits are cheesy and crunchy on top, but soft on the bottom next to the sauce. It’s so savory and I like all the textures. It was kind of fun watching the biscuits plump up over the sausage mixture. It holds up pretty well as leftovers, too. I’ve been taking it to work for lunch and it’s just as tasty as fresh from the oven.

Daaaang, girl. CHEESY BISCUITS. They look so golden delicious. YUM.
Wow. This looks really good. From the title, I thought it was going to be a breakfast casserole. I’m all over the cheesy biscuits and you are right, I bet pepperoni would be awesome in this!
You know I love me a casserole, and this one looks faaaaantastic!
Comfort food at its best! And I love a 1 skillet meal.
Before visiting your blog, I only read the name and knew immediately that I had to stop by… it’s the first thing I ask my husband while he’s still chewing his first bite, ha! I want a piece of this casserole – it looks amazing!
Ha ha! Thanks for stopping by Kathi!
This looks amazing. I’m not from the South, so while my British self has lived in America, the concept of topping a casserole with biscuit is still pretty alien to me, but you’ve made it look delicious. I might trial it on my unsuspecting British family..!
I will pretty much eat anything with biscuits on top. Even an old leather shoe! Love this casserole!
You do such a good job of describing your food. I need to be better at that! Lovely!
