Servings: 8 pizza slices
Cost: $14.03, $1.75 per serving
Ingredients
- 1 12-inch store-bought pizza crust
- ½ cup Thousand Island dressing
- 1 pound ground beef
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup diced onions
- ½ cup diced pickles
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- ¼ cup sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place the pizza crust on a baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Cook the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it apart as it cooks, until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease.
- Stir the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder into the cooked ground beef.
- Spread the Thousand Island dressing evenly over the pizza crust, leaving about a ½-inch border around the edge.
- Sprinkle the cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly over the dressing.
- Top with the seasoned ground beef, diced onions, and diced pickles.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for 2–3 minutes.
- Top with the shredded lettuce and sesame seeds.
- Cut into 8 slices and serve immediately.
Notes
Lean ground beef can be used to reduce excess grease and help keep the pizza crust crisp.
For a less sweet sauce, mix the Thousand Island dressing with a small amount of tomato sauce or tomato paste before spreading it over the crust.
For the best texture, add the shredded lettuce after baking and just before serving.
