Meat Lovers Pizza Casserole

Ingredients:

1 lb lean ground beef

1 lb pork sausage

1 cup chopped pepperoni

¼ cup all-purpose flour

4 tsp Italian seasoning, divided

1 (26-oz) jar tomato basil pasta sauce

2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

1 (13.8-oz) can refrigerated pizza crust dough

1 Tbsp olive oil

3 Tbsp grated parmesan cheese

Directions:

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Cook the meats: In a large skillet, cook the ground beef and sausage over medium heat until browned. Drain the fat.

Add pepperoni and seasoning: Stir in the pepperoni, 2 tsp of Italian seasoning, and flour. Cook for 1 minute.

Simmer the sauce: Add the pasta sauce and simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine.

Prepare the crust: Roll out the pizza crust dough and place it in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining Italian seasoning.

Add the meat sauce: Pour the meat sauce mixture over the crust and spread evenly. Top with shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
