Assembling and Baking
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and coat a deep-dish pie plate with non-stick spray. Remove excess grease from the skillet and transfer the meat and veggie mixture into the pie plate. Now, fold in two and a half cups of Monterey Jack cheese, reserving a bit for the final garnish. Pour your Bisquick mixture over the top and gently place the pie plate in the oven.
Bake for 20-25 minutes. Just as the timer ticks down to its last seconds, open the oven and sprinkle the remaining cheese. Return it to the oven for an additional minute or two to let the cheese melt to perfection.
