"This recipe was given to me by a good friend when I got married, and I have used it many times since," shares Lois Hill from her kitchen in Trinity, North Carolina. The saucy meal is family-pleasing and also budget-pleasing at 98 cents a serving.

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 cans (8 ounces each) tomato sauce
  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen peas
  • 1 tube (12 ounces) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  1. In a large skillet, cook the beef, celery and onion over medium heat, until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the flour, salt, oregano and pepper until blended. Add tomato sauce and peas; simmer for 5 minutes.
  2. Transfer to a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Separate biscuits; arrange over beef mixture. Sprinkle with cheese.
  3. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 20 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown and cheese is melted.
