How to Make Addictive Cheeseburger Pizza
- In a large skillet, brown the 1 lb ground beef, 1/2 lb Italian sausage (casings removed), 1 chopped green bell pepper, 1 chopped medium onion, and 2 minced cloves of garlic over medium-high heat. Cook until the meat is fully cooked and browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain off any excess grease.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). While the meat mixture cooks, unroll the 1 (13.8 ounce) package of refrigerated pizza dough onto the greased 15x10x1 inch jelly roll pan. Gently stretch and press the dough to the edges of the pan, creating a slightly raised crust.
- Pre-bake the crust for 7-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Spread 1 (24 ounce) jar of pasta sauce evenly over the pre-baked crust, leaving a ½-inch border.
- Top with the cooked meat mixture, distributing it evenly over the sauce.
- Arrange the 8 ounces of sliced Velveeta cheese over the meat, leaving about ½ inch between slices.
- Sprinkle 8 ounces of shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the Velveeta.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned.
- Let the pizza rest for 5 minutes before cutting into 12 squares and serving.
