Ingredients:
1 package pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
1 lb ground beef
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup pizza sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup cooked and crumbled bacon (optional)
1/2 cup pepperoni slices
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1/4 cup sliced bell peppers
1/4 cup sliced pickles
1 tablespoon olive oil (for brushing)
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the pizza dough to fit the bottom and sides of a pie dish.
In a skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat. Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Once browned, remove from heat.
Press the rolled-out pizza dough into the pie dish, covering the bottom and sides.
Spread the cooked beef evenly over the dough as the base layer.
Pour the pizza sauce on top of the beef layer and spread it evenly.
Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce.
Layer with pepperoni, mushrooms, bell peppers, pickles, and crumbled bacon (if using).
Add the remaining mozzarella cheese on top and brush the edges of the dough with olive oil.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
