  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 pound ground beef (85/15)
  • 8 ounce can tomato sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

  7. Stir together and cook over medium to medium-low heat for about 8-10 minutes or until the mixture has thickened slightly.
  8. While the meat is simmering, press biscuits into greased muffin tins, forming a cup shape.

  10. Top with cheese and green onion. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

    • Don’t overfill the biscuit cups; they need room to puff up as they bake.

    • Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or hot sauce if you want a little heat.

    • Make them mini! Use smaller biscuit dough pieces in mini muffin tins for bite-sized party appetizers.

    • Depending on the size of your muffin tin wells, you may have some leftover sloppy joe mixture. You can use another can of refrigerated biscuits to make more sloppy joe cups, or you can grab some Fritos scoops and use them to shovel the sloppy joe mixture into your mouth while you stand over the pan of warm sloppy joe 😉
