CHEESY HAMBURGER PIZZA

• Place on lightly floured surface; knead 5 min. or until dough is smooth and elastic. Shape into ball; flatten slightly. Place on large baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray; cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in warm place 20 min.
• Meanwhile, microwave meat in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 min. or until done; drain. Break up meat with spoon. Add sauce; mix well.
• Heat oven to 425°F. Divide dough into 4 pieces; stretch and pat each piece into 7-inch round. Place on baking sheet; top with meat mixture and mozzarella. Bake 18 to 20 min. or until cheese is melted and crust is golden brown. Top with Parmesan.

GROUND BEEF PIZZA

Steps:

• In a skillet, cook ground beef, onion, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper at medium-high heat, stirring from time to time, 3 to 5 minutes or until beef is no longer pink. Drain any fat. Set aside.
• On a lightly floured surface, lower the dough in a circle of 12 inches of diameter. Put on a greased pizza plate. Spread sauce on the pizza dough. Garnish with beef preparation and sprinkle with cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. Cook on the lowest grill in a preheated oven of 500 F for about 10 minutes or until cheese is bubbling and crust is golden and slighly inflated.

MEATZZA RECIPE (MEAT-CRUST PIZZA)

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a 14-inch rimmed, non-perforated pizza pan with a circle of high-heat-resistant parchment paper. You can also use a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment and make the pizza a bit smaller in diameter.
• On the prepared baking sheet, flatten the ground beef into a very thin, large circle - make it as thin as you can (1/8-inch thick is good). I use a rolling pin to roll it as thin as I can, then use my fingers to spread it evenly so that it covers the entire pan.
• Sprinkle the ground beef with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes.
• Bake the meat crust in the preheated oven until fully cooked. If rolled thin, this should take about 10 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and switch the oven to broil. By now, the meat crust has shrunk and is sitting in a pool of cooking liquids. Carefully transfer it, using two wide spatulas, to a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet.
• Spread the meat base with pizza sauce, then sprinkle the cheese evenly on top. Add your toppings. Return to the oven and broil just until the cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes. You can also bake in the 400F oven for 5 more minutes instead of broiling, but I do like the way broiling crisps up the meaty edges.
• Allow the meatzza to rest for 5 minutes before cutting it into 8 triangles and serving.

• Bake at 400� about 15 minutes or until the beef is cooked through.

Stretch the pizza dough into a round (12 inches for thick or 14 inches for thinner) on the parchment and brush the edge of the round with the oil, then sprinkle it with the sesame seeds. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups cheese evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top with the beef, then sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheese over the beef.
