Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds lean ground beef

  • 1 (15 ounce) can pizza sauce

  • 1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained (Optional)

  • ¼ cup sliced pitted ripe olives

  • 1 (10 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  4. Flatten each biscuit with your hands and arrange on top of cheese.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until biscuits are golden, 15 to 17 minutes.
