Recipe: Pizza Cups

Pizza Cup

Our family enjoys pizza cups.  This main dish contains only 4 ingredients and easy to put together.  You can make them from scratch or if you have leftover spaghetti or lasagna meat sauce you can make these pretty quickly.  These are simple, fun, and delicious for the family to eat for dinner (plus you can use up some of your leftovers).  The girls like helping put these pizza cups together and taking them to school.

Pizza Cups:

• 1/2 pound lean Ground Beef
• 1/2 (12 oz) jar Spaghetti Sauce
• 1  (8 count) can Biscuits
• 4 oz shredded Mozzarella Cheese
• Pepperoni Slices (optional)

Brown the ground beef in a pan, drain the excess oil.  Add the spaghetti sauce to the meat and heat until begins to boil then turn down to simmer.  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Cut the biscuits in half, flatten them, and press them into a greased cupcake cups (16 count).  Use an ice cream scoop and put the meat mixture into the biscuit cup, sprinkle shredded cheese over it, and bake for 10 minutes (or until the cheese melts).
