Nutritional Benefits

You might not think of cheeseburger bites as a health food, but there’s a silver lining! For starters, they can be a great source of protein from the beef and cheese, which helps build and repair tissues in your body. Plus, if you’re using whole wheat rolls instead of regular white buns, you’ll get extra fiber, which is fantastic for digestion. Just keep an eye on the portion sizes, and you can fuel up without feeling guilty!

Fun Variations to Make

Veggie Lovers Twist: Instead of beef, try using a mixture of sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, and spinach to create a delightful vegetarian version!
Spicy Kick: Add some jalapeños or hot sauce to the beef mixture if you prefer a bit of heat!
Different Cheeses: Switch out the cheddar for pepper jack or mozzarella for a deliciously different flavor!

Easy Garlic Parmesan Cheeseburger Bombs Recipe

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 package refrigerated biscuit dough (8 count)
1/4 cup melted butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional for garnish)

Instructions – garlic parmesan cheeseburger bombs

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked—about 7-10 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Add in the minced garlic, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Remove from heat and stir in the cheddar and Parmesan cheeses until melted and combined.
Take each biscuit from the package and gently flatten it out on a clean surface.
Place a generous tablespoon of the beef and cheese mixture in the center of each flattened biscuit.
Carefully fold the edges of the biscuit around the filling and pinch to seal. Place the bombs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops with melted butter and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown.
Once baked, remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

Valuable Tips

Keep your hands slightly damp when sealing the biscuit bombs. It helps prevent the dough from sticking to your fingers!
If you have leftover filling, it’s delicious on its own! You could even use it as a dip with crackers or veggies.
Store any leftover bombs in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to keep them crispy!

Equipment Needed

Here’s what you’ll need for these tasty bombs:

A large skillet for cooking the beef
A mixing bowl for combining the ingredients
A rolling pin (optional but helpful for flattening the biscuits)
A baking sheet with parchment paper
A pastry brush for applying the butter
