- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

- Spread the sloppy joe mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Biscuit Topping
- In a medium bowl, combine biscuit mix, milk, melted butter, garlic powder, and parsley. Stir until just mixed to avoid overworking the dough.
- Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit mixture over the sloppy joe layer, covering as much as possible.
Baking
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the biscuit topping.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, then serve warm.
