Recipe Ingredients

Here are the simple ingredients you’ll need to make this Tomato Basil and Chicken Bubble-Up Bake.

Frozen Pillsbury™ Grands!™ Buttermilk Biscuits: Frozen biscuits are so convenient, because you can defrost as many as you need. They’re pillowy, tender, and make the perfect golden bites.

Cream Cheese: Cream cheese adds richness to the soup base to make this a real stick-to-your-ribs meal.

Progresso™ Vegetable Classics Tomato Basil Soup: The soup is the creamy, savory tomato base of the casserole. You’ll use a whole can.
