In a small saucepan, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the water, tomato sauce, tomato paste and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in vegetables and 1/4 C. cheese. Transfer to a 1-qt. baking dish coated with cooking spray (dish will be full). Separate each biscuit horizontally in half; arrange around edge of dish. Brush with butter; sprinkle with oregano. Sprinkle remaining cheese over beef filling. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 18-22 minutes or until heated through and biscuits are golden brown.
