🍲 How To Make Pioneer Woman John Wayne Casserole

1. Set oven rack to center position and preheat to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Coat a13×9 glass baking dish with spray.
2. Arrange the biscuits in a single layer in the pan. Press the dough into the pen to bring them together, and continue pressing the dough halfway up the pan’s edges.
3. Bake the dough for 12–15 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through the baking time. The dough should have a pale brown hue with only a hint of edge coloration. Once baked, remove from the oven and set aside. Keep the oven turned on.
4. Toss the browned ground beef with the taco seasoning, water, and biscuit mix; cook according to package directions while the biscuits bake.
5. Throw the cooked taco meat into a bowl and place it aside. Empty the pan.
6. Put half of the cheddar cheese, half of the onions, sour cream, mayonnaise, and half of the cheddar cheese in a different bowl. Thoroughly mix and set aside.
7. Add the remaining bell peppers and onions to the taco meat pan and sauté until they are just softened.
8. Arrange the following items on top of the biscuit crust that has been baked: taco meat, tomato slices, bell peppers, onions, jalapeno peppers, sour cream, and leftover shredded cheese.
9. Bake uncovered for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the dough begins to softly brown and the cheese has melted.
