How to Make Easy Pizza

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Lightly grease a large cookie sheet or pizza pan with cooking spray or oil.
  3. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups Bisquick baking mix and ¾ cup water. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  4. Lightly flour your hands and gently pat the dough into a 12-inch circle on the prepared pan.
  5. In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown 1 lb ground beef, 1 medium onion (chopped), 1 tbsp beef bouillon granules, and 2 cloves garlic (minced). Drain off any excess grease.
  6. In a small bowl, combine 1 (24-ounce) jar of tomato sauce and 1 tsp dried oregano. Spread evenly over the pizza dough.
  7. Top with the beef mixture, 1 cup sliced mushrooms, ½ cup chopped green bell pepper, and 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
