In a greased deep 9x13 dish, place 1 can of biscuits evenly on the bottom.

Pour the meat mixture over the biscuits, leaving the grease in the pan.

In a bowl, blend together 1 tub of softened cream cheese with chives, 34 cup of sour cream, 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, and 1 packet of ranch dressing mix until creamy.

Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the meat layer.

Slice 1 red sweet bell pepper and add it on top.

Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese and 1 cup of sharp cheddar cheese on top of the casserole.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes until the biscuits are done and the dish is bubbling.
