Bubble Pizza
JoAnna M. Lund

Joanne Zutz, Norfolk, NE, sent me a fabulous recipe for pizza that is faster to prepare then it is to call for home delivery! After fixing this just once, I wonder if you will ever go back to the traditional way? You just might want to buy stock in Pillsbury refrigerated biscuit division before word of this recipe hits the streets.
Serves 6

8 ounces ground 90% lean turkey or beef
1 (7.5-ounce) can Pillsbury refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1 3/4 cup Hunt's Chunky tomato sauce (15-ounce can)
1 teaspoon JO's Pizza or Italian Seasoning
1 teaspoon Splenda
1 cup shredded Kraft reduced-fat mozzarella cheese (4 ounces)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large skillet sprayed with olive-flavored cooking spray, brown meat. Meanwhile, cut biscuits into quarters. Evenly place biscuit pieces in a 10-inch deep dish pie plate sprayed with olive-flavored cooking spray. Stir JO's Pizza Seasoning and Splenda into tomato sauce. Evenly spoon sauce over biscuit pieces. Arrange browned meat over sauce. Sprinkle top with mozzarella cheese. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until biscuits are baked. Place pie plate on a wire rack andlet set 5 minutes before serving. Cut into 6 pieces.

Each serving equals:
HE: 1 2/3 Protein, 1 1/4 Bread, 2/3 Vegetable
