Easy Pizza Casserole = Dinner Win!
I am SO excited to be sharing today’s pizza casserole recipe with you today!
It is so simple, quick and delicious and has already been made again since the first time. You know what that means? It’s a keeper dinner recipe and has already been added into the meal rotation. 😉
I think it’s safe to say that pizza is one of kids’ favorite meals. With that in mind, I knew a casserole version would be a hit with the kids, and I was right.
This casserole was devoured in two seconds and the kids have asked that we make it more often. It takes just 5 minutes to prep, which means this is a no brainer for the monthly meal plan.
We also love that this can be changed up whichever way you like to be meat lovers, Hawaiian, vegetarian and more. Just give it a try – I promise the kids will love it. 😉
How to Make Pizza bake
This recipe takes just 5 minutes to prep, which is AH-MAZING!
Just preheat oven to 375.
Cut the 8 biscuits into 8 parts each. Add those to a bowl and mix with 8 oz. pizza sauce (we like Classico if going store-bought but also have a homemade pizza sauce recipe) and 1 ½ cups shredded Mozzarella cheese. Mix this well and pour into a greased 9×13 baking dish.
Top this with another 1 ½ cups of shredded cheese and pepperoni slices. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown and cheese begins to brown.
Other pizza combo ideas:
- MEAT LOVERS: pepperoni, ham, beef, sausage, bacon
- SUPREME: pork, beef, mushrooms, bell peppers, red onions
- HAWAIIAN: ham, green bell pepper, pineapple (and peppers for more flavor!)
- VEGGIE: green peppers, red onions, olives, mushrooms, roma tomatoes
- BBQ CHICKEN: Use 1 cup of bbq sauce instead of pizza sauce and then top with shredded chicken and chopped basil.
Recipe Notes + Tips
To make half a recipe: If a 9×13 is a little too large for your family you can easily divide the recipe in half. Use an 8 inch square baking dish and bake for 15-18 minutes.
Storage: You can pre the pizza a day ahead of time. Store, covered, in the fridge until you’re ready to bake. You may need to add a couple more minutes to the bake time to account for the chilled ingredients.
Leftovers can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
We seriously loved this dish, and I couldn’t believe how simple it was! I’m excited to do a Hawaiian version next time with pineapple and ham. 🙂

This recipe was so easy and everyone devoured it! Pizza never disappoints.
My whole family loves this…we use mostly Canadian Bacon instead of pepperoni, though.
A friend brought this over when my husband had shoulder surgery. My kids loved it!
DElicious! Family hit!
Woohoo!! Makes me happy to hear! Thank you!
A great meal for the family! Very quick and taSty.
I made this today thinking that it would be a fast meal from start to finish. Had a busy night. Put in the oven for 22 minutes and wasn’t close to finish. Kept
Adding 5 minutes. (Five times). Never fully cooked. Had to leave without dinner. Lucky I had a salad prepared. I think it would be a great meal if I had more time.
Can you please give an example how to cut each biscuit into 8 pieces. Thanks
She shows a picture of the biscuits cut into 8 pieces. ☝️
In the post, I show a picture of how to cut it 🙂
This Pizza Casserole is such a great idea! Perfect for a quick and delicious meal for the whole family!
I have found that anything pizza related is always a hit at my house. So happy your family liked it too!
What a great idea!! I love that it’s bite-sized pieces of dough! My kids loved it. We added sausage too!
Quick, easy and good. Will definitely make it on a regular basis now.

Oh this makes me so happy to hear! So glad you enjoy the recipe and how fun to switch it up a little too. Thanks for sharing!
Such a fun easy recipe. The kids loved it. So good.
So yummy and easy and the kids love it!!
Quick, easy and delicious!
Yay! So glad you enjoyed!
Should I use the Grands southern homestyle biscuits or the flaky layers? Does anyone know what biscuit was used in the pictures?
You could use either one!!
If you wanted to avoid all the carbs in the biscuits, could you use a can of refrigerated pizza dough? Has anyone tried something like that? Would you need to pre-bake the crust before adding all the ingredients? Thanks!
Is the nutrition facts listed per item or the entire recipe? looks delicious and I am anxious to try it.
Looks delicious. Will have to try it. And possible figure out how to make it GF.
