- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
- 2 (16 oz) cans refrigerated buttermilk biscuits

- 1/4 tsp dried thyme
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 green onions, sliced

- Pour gravy into the baking dish. Sprinkle cheeses over the gravy.
- Cut biscuits in half, arrange cut-side down over cheese. Brush tops with melted butter mixed with garlic powder and thyme.

Notes
- For a spicier version, use spicy sausage and add jalapeños to the gravy.
- You can substitute homemade biscuits for refrigerated ones.
- If the gravy is too thick, add more milk; if too thin, cook longer.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the oven at 350°F for 15-20 minutes.
