Bubble Up Pizza - Recipe Diaries (1)

You guys liked the bubble up enchiladas so much, that I decided to try the bubble up pizza version of it. I've seen it pinned so many times now, that the enchilada version has become my most popular post on my blog. Yay, thank you to everybody for making that post such a success!

The pizza version is just as good and easy as the enchilada version. I do however, like the enchilada version, best so far. Always keep a can of biscuits in your fridge and you can pull together a week night meal as easy as this, in a snap. Turkey pepperoni is actually pretty good too, and tastes just like the fatty kind. Minus the grease. Go out and try some turkey pepperoni if you haven't tried it yet.

Ingredients Needed

  • 96% lean ground beef - Is considered better than higher fat options for several reasons. First, it has less saturated fat, which can contribute to heart disease and other health issues. Additionally, it tends to have fewer calories per serving, making it a good option for those watching their weight.
  • Onion powder, or 1 onion, chopped
  • Tomato sauce - Can also sub crushed tomatoes or use your favorite jar of marinara sauce
  • Garlic, minced - Chopped fresh garlic can take some time to chop so I often always use the freshly minced garlic that comes already made in a jar.
  • Italian seasoning - Is a popular blend of herbs and spices that typically includes a mix of dried basil, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and sometimes garlic powder or dried red pepper flakes.
  • Refrigerated buttermilk biscuits, buttermilk - are a popular type of refrigerated dough that can be found in most grocery stores. These versatile biscuits are a great addition to any meal and can be used to create a variety of dishes, from sweet to savory.
  • Pizza toppings you like, green pepper, turkey pepperoni, mushrooms, etc.
  • Mozzarella cheese, shredded - I like to use Reduced-Fat Cheese because it has a lower calorie count and less saturated fat than regular cheese, but it may also have a different taste and texture. It also helps with keeping the calorie count pretty low for this recipe.
  • See the recipe card below for a full list of ingredients and measurements.

Recipe FAQS

How is this a WW recipe?

NO FOOD is off limits on WW and WW themselves stresses that a lot on their social media pages. That is one reason why I love WW. You can pretty much eat ANYTHING to lose weight just as long as you stay in your daily points range for that.

How does Weight Watchers work?

Each recipe or food has a Smart Points value. This is calculated using calories, saturated fat, protein, and sugar. It is best to stay away from foods that are loaded with saturated fat and sugar on the plan because those foods are higher in points. When you register with Weight Watchers you are given a daily set of points to target based on your age, gender, height, and activity level. Think of it as an easier way to track your macros.

    Sorry for the nutrition error. Should be right now.

  2. Bekki says

    Somehow this recipe has been updated to say it's only 5 smart points- each Pillsbury Buttermilk biscuit alone is 5 smart points and if there's 15 biscuits a can and the recipe has 8 servings, there's no way a serving is is only 5 smart points. I. just wanted to give a heads up in case the consumer didn't do their own math.

  3. Jackie says

    What is the serving size?

  4. amber says

    What size iron skillet is pictured?

  5. WanDa says

    I'm sorry if I missing this but what exactly is a serving size?

  6. Jill says

    Do we have to use the lean ground beef? I think it would be good without it.. it doesn't even look like its in the picture..
