Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 cup Italian sausage, crumbled
1 cup pepperoni slices
1 medium onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup marinara sauce
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 package (2.5 oz) refrigerated pizza crust (or homemade dough)
Directions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a deep-dish pie pan or pizza pan with cooking spray or olive oil.
Cook the Meats:
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef and Italian sausage until fully cooked. Drain excess fat. Add the chopped onion and green bell pepper to the skillet, cooking until softened, about 5 minutes. Season with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Prepare the Pizza Crust:
Roll out the refrigerated pizza crust on a floured surface to fit the size of your pan. Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan, ensuring an even thickness.
Assemble the Pie:
Spread half of the marinara sauce over the crust. Layer the cooked meat mixture evenly over the sauce, followed by the pepperoni slices. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top, then add the remaining marinara sauce.
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, and the crust is cooked through.
Serve:
Let the pie cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy your hearty Deep Hamburger Sausage & Pepperoni Pie!
