Tebow’s Pizza Pie

My mom shared this recipe with me from GMA and since it's football season I thought it was a good one to share. Even Allie likes it, so that's huge for us! She said she'd like to eat this all the time, and she never eats meat or green things and this has both and she liked it!


Tebow's Pizza Pie  Servings: 4-6
Difficulty: Easy
Cook Time: 30-60 min

This pizza pie is one of star quarterback Tim Tebow's favorite dishes that his mother made growing up. Although Tebow has never made it himself, he says the pizza pie is great for serving to friends and that it represents the kind of "normal food" he prefers.

Ingredients
1 lb. ground beef
c. chopped green pepper
1 pkg. Italian style spaghetti sauce mix
1 6 oz. can tomato paste
c. water
1 large can baking powder biscuits 1/3 c. grated Parmesan cheese
6-8 oz. shredded Mozzarella cheese

Directions
Brown the meat, drain. Add green pepper, cook until tender.
Stir in sauce mix, tomato paste, and water.
Simmer 10 minutes.

Line greased 9 in. pie pan with biscuits, press together to seal.
Sprinkle c. Parmesan cheese over the crust.
Fill with meat mixture. Sprinkle top with Mozzarella cheese and
remaining Parmesan cheese. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 20
minutes.

(The sauce can be made ahead and reheated to facilitate last
minute preparations.)

I've just used a regular tube of biscuits and tried the jumbo and both worked, but I need to remember to bake it longer if I do the jumbos! Also, I don’t know why but I’ve still never had a pie pan so I always just make it in a 8x8 pan.
