Ingredients
  

1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough

1 cup marinara sauce (or pizza sauce)

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup bell peppers, diced (any color)

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

1/2 cup fresh spinach leaves, chopped

1/4 cup black olives, sliced

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning blend

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Olive oil, for greasing the skillet

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it is ready for baking the pizzas.

    Prepare the Skillet: Take a cast-iron skillet or an oven-safe frying pan and lightly grease it with olive oil to prevent sticking. Set the greased skillet aside as you prepare the pizzas.

      Prepare the Biscuit Dough: Roll out the refrigerated biscuit dough on a lightly floured surface until it is slightly flattened. Using a cookie cutter or the rim of a glass, cut each biscuit into smaller rounds to create the bases for your mini pizzas.

        Assemble Mini Pizzas: Arrange the biscuit rounds closely together in the greased skillet, ensuring there’s a small gap between each one to allow for expansion during baking.

          Sauce it Up: Use a spoon to dollop marinara or pizza sauce onto each biscuit round, spreading it evenly across the surface with the back of the spoon for a delicious foundation.

            Add Veggies: Evenly distribute the diced bell peppers, halved cherry tomatoes, finely chopped red onion, chopped spinach, and sliced black olives on top of the sauced biscuit rounds. Aim for a colorful and inviting veggie topping.

              Cheesy Goodness: Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the colorful veggies, ensuring each mini pizza gets a good amount of cheese!

                Seasoning: Finish it off by sprinkling Italian seasoning and garlic powder over the cheese, infusing rich flavors into the pizzas.

                  Bake: Carefully place the skillet in your preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. Look for the biscuit bottoms to turn golden brown and the cheese to melt and bubble beautifully.

                    Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. If you like, garnish the mini pizzas with fresh basil leaves for an aromatic touch before serving.

                      Enjoy: Slice each mini pizza using a pizza cutter and serve them hot. Savor the delight of these veggie-packed mini skillet biscuit pizzas with family or friends!
