Introduction

I will be the first to admit I LOVE pizza and EVERY healthy lifestyle should include it. :) After all, it has several food groups that we all NEED in our day ~ protein, carbs, dairy, vegetables, the list goes on. Bubble Up Pizza Casserole is a recipe I came across several years ago when I first started Weight Watchers. I LOVE it because it’s easy, loaded with flavor and you can mix up your ingredients to get a different result every time.

I used what I had on hand this time, however, I have in the past, used ground turkey for the meats, ham/pineapple plus vegetables and fire roasted diced tomatoes for the spaghetti sauce. The possibilities are endless.

Ingredients

2 Trader Joe’s Sweet Italian Chicken Sausages, casings removed

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 red & 1/2 bell peppers, chopped

1 small onion, chopped

2 c sliced mushrooms

17 slices turkey pepperoni, chopped

2 pinches crushed red pepper flakes

1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning

Freshly ground black pepper to taste

1 jar Trader Joe’s Arrabiata Spaghetti Sauce or your favorite pasta sauce

1 container Trader Joe’s Buttermilk Biscuits

1 1/2 cup(s) Kraft Low-Moisture, Part-Skim Finely Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

4 Tbsp shredded parmesan cheese

Directions

1. Preheat over to 375 and spray a 9x13 dish with nonstick cooking
spray. Coat a large frying pan with nonstick spray and place over medium heat. Add sausage and brown.

2. While the sausage cooks, chop all vegetables and turkey pepperoni. Add turkey pepperoni for 1 minute to sausage and remove/set sausage aside.

3. Return vegetables to pan and cook until soft, approximately 5-7 minutes. Add spices, spaghetti sauce and mix well. Remove from heat.

4.. Pull each biscuit apart into little pieces. Arrange half of the biscuit pieces evenly over the bottom of a 9x13 pan. (Be sure that the biscuits aren't to thick, or they won't cook through.)

5.. Spread half of the sauce mixture over the biscuits. Sprinkle with half of the cheese. Repeat layers.

6. Bake for 23-28 minutes or until golder brown. Cut into squares and ENJOY!
