  7. Pour into the casserole dish and bake at 375 for about 20 minutes.
  8. While its in the oven its a good time to make up the biscuits... or if your using the tubed biscuits then maybe its a good time to clean up the mess ;)
  9. Pull out and raise the temp to 425 degrees
  10. Place the Biscuits on top and pop back in the oven for 12-15 minutes.
