How to Make Beef Macaroni Pizza

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground beef, 1 tsp seasoned salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1 large egg, lightly beaten, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, and 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce.
  3. Press the beef mixture firmly into a 10-inch pizza pan, creating an even crust.
  4. Cook 1 lb macaroni in a large pot of boiling salted water for 8-10 minutes, or until al dente. Drain well.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine the cooked macaroni, 1/2 cup chopped celery, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and the remaining 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce. Mix well.
  6. Spread the macaroni mixture evenly over the beef crust.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the beef crust is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  8. Remove from oven and sprinkle with 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese and 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese.
  9. Lightly brush 1/2 cup thinly sliced green pepper rings with olive oil and arrange in a circle on top of the pizza.
  10. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the green peppers are slightly softened.
