Delicious Variations to Try

Chef Emma’s Helpful Tips
- Make-Ahead Magic: You can prepare the filling up to a day in advance. Just cover and refrigerate until you’re ready to bake! Add the biscuits just before baking for best results.
- Ingredient Swaps: Use cooked turkey, shredded beef, or even veggie crumbles if you’re looking for a meatless alternative. The dish remains delicious regardless!
- Storage Suggestions: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through.
- Perfectly Sliced Biscuit Dough: If the biscuit dough feels sticky, a little flour on your hands can help you cut and arrange it easily.
