Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef

• 1/2 cup chopped onion

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 cup beef broth

• 1 can cream of mushroom soup

• 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables

• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

• 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough

Directions

• In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until fully cooked. Drain excess fat if necessary.
• Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and garlic fragrant.
• Pour in the beef broth and cream of mushroom soup, stirring to combine all ingredients in the skillet.
• Add the frozen mixed vegetables and black pepper, stirring to distribute them evenly within the mixture. Bring to a gentle simmer.
• Cut each biscuit in half and gently place them on top of the beef mixture, covering the surface evenly.
• Cover the skillet with a lid, reduce heat to low, and let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. This allows the biscuits to cook thoroughly in the steam.
• When the biscuits are fully puffed and cooked through, remove the skillet from heat. Serve the dish hot in bowls.
