Easy Cheesy Chili Biscuit Bakein a white bowl - this easy weeknight dinner recipe has just 5 ingredients! Chili is topped with vegetables, biscuits, and cheese then baked up for a delicious comfort food meal.

You need an easy dinner recipe to help stop the urge of ordering out. A busy weeknight and hungry family is tempting to quickly place an order but trust me, it’s worth spending just 5 minutes assembling this easy biscuit casserole with ingredients you already have in your kitchen. 

This biscuit casserole only takes 5 minutes to assemble with ingredients you probably already have: I found two cans of chili hidden in the back of my refrigerator, a bell pepper that was almost ready to throw out, and the can of biscuits was one day shy of expiration, so I wanted to use them ASAP. It really can’t get any easier than this.

How to make Chili Biscuit Casserole

  1. You need one can of Pillsbury (or similar) Grands! Biscuits, along with your favorite canned chili or my homemade turkey chili recipe.
  2. I love adding freshly diced red bell pepper: freshly diced. This will give your chili with biscuits a burst of flavor!
  3. Of course you need shredded cheese! We love cheddar cheese but pepper jack or Monterey Jack are great too.
  4. All you have to do is layer all the ingredients in the pan and bake – that’s it!

Expert Tips

  • If you want a crunchier top on your casserole, then use a more shallow baking dish.

  • You know when this is done baking when the biscuits are cooked through, the chili is bubbly, and the cheese is melted and browning on top.

  2. This looks sooooo easy. And you are right, dinner is SO HARD after a day of blog baking! My husband comes home and I’m like what, you don’t want 50 cookies and a side dish? Who are you?
