Ingredients

Directions

  5. Place the prepared pizza crust on a 16-inch pizza pan or a baking sheet.
  6. Spread half of the beef and sauce mixture evenly over the crust.
  7. Sprinkle 6 ounces of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the beef layer.
  8. Arrange the pepperoni slices evenly over the cheese.
  9. Spread the remaining beef and sauce mixture over the pepperoni.
  10. Top with the remaining 6 ounces of shredded mozzarella cheese.
  11. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
