 Combine the first 3 ingredients in a bowl; stir well. Gradually add
 water and next 2 ingredients, stirring with a wire whisk until
 blended; set aside.

 Cook the onion and beef in a large saucepan coated with cooking
 spray over medium-high heat until browned, stirring to crumble;
 drain in a colander.

 Return beef mixture to pan. Add parsley and next 5 ingredients;
 stir well. Add broth mixture; cook over medium heat for 15 minutes
 or until thickened, stirring constantly.

 Spoon mixture into a 13x9" baking dish coated with cooking spray.
 Carefully split biscuits in half horizontally, and place over beef
 mixture. Bake at 400°F for 10 minutes or until biscuits are lightly
 browned.

 Make-Ahead Tips:

 You can assemble the casserole ahead of time, without thawing the
 frozen vegetables and omitting the biscuits; cover and freeze. Thaw
 frozen casserole overnight in refrigerator; let stand at room
 temperature 30 minutes. Top with biscuits; bake as directed.
