5 Easy Meals—#5: Cowboy Casserole
by AndiatBettyCrocker  11/18/2009 11:23:00 AM

Cowboy Casserole is the last recipe in a series of 5 Easy Meals for week-night dinners.  With only 7 ingredients (all of which you probably have on hand), this is sure to be a meal that your family will like.

1. Cook ground beef in a skillet; stir in baked beans and barbecue sauce. Spoon this mixture into a casserole.
2. Make a dough using Bisquick, milk and butter. Drop dough by tablespoons onto beef mixture. Aren't Blake and Jack doing a good job of this in the photo below?

 3. Bake uncoverd for only 18 to 22 minutes.

In the chaos of picking up Blake from daycare and my mother from her assisted living home, and then forgetting the key to Jason's and Katie's house and so driving back the 1/2-hour drive to our house during rush hour, I may have overbaked the casserole a little. OK, maybe a lot. But, it still tasted great and was a nice warm meal after a very, very busy day.

 Geat-grandma Shirley, helped Blake with his dinner. Blake looks so happy because he made the biscuits on top of the casserole.
