Robert Wick - Altamonte Springs, Florida
Bake-Off® Contest 33, 1988
Robert Wick was a high school junior when he competed in the 1988 contest with this family favorite meat pie. By arranging the meat mixture, cheese and vegetables in layers and topping the casserole with an overlapping layer of split biscuits, he added eye appeal to the tasty medley.
_ pound ground beef
___ cup chopped onions
_ tablespoon oil, if desired
___ cup water
___ teaspoon salt, if desired
___ teaspoon pepper
_ (8-ounce) can tomato sauce
_ (6-ounce) can tomato paste
_ cups (8 oz.) shredded mozzarella cheese
_ 1/2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (from 1-lb. pkg.), thawed
_ (12-ounce) cans flaky refrigerated biscuits
_ tablespoon margarine or butter, melted
___ teaspoon dried oregano leaves, crushed
Heat oven to 375°F. Grease 13 x 9-inch (3-quart) baking dish. In large skillet, brown ground beef and onion in oil until beef is thoroughly cooked; drain. Stir in water, salt, pepper, tomato sauce and tomato paste; simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Place half of hot meat mixture in greased baking dish; sprinkle with 2/3 cup of the cheese. Spoon mixed vegetables evenly over cheese; sprinkle an additional 2/3 cup cheese over vegetables. Spoon remaining HOT meat mixture evenly over cheese and vegetables; sprinkle with remaining 2/3 cup cheese.
Separate dough into 20 biscuits. Separate each biscuit into 3 layers. Arrange layers over hot meat mixture, overlapping, in 3 rows of 20 layers each. Gently brush biscuits with margarine; sprinkle with oregano. Bake at 375°F. for 22 to 27 minutes or until biscuit topping is golden brown.
