Ingredients
1 pre-made pie crust (deep-dish style)
1 lb ground beef
½ lb Italian sausage (mild or spicy)
1 cup pizza sauce
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup pepperoni slices
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Meat Filling: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and Italian sausage until browned. Drain excess grease. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- Prepare the Crust: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pie crust in a deep-dish pan and partially bake for 8-10 minutes.
- Assemble the Pie: Spread half the shredded mozzarella in the crust. Add the cooked meat mixture, then layer the pizza sauce evenly on top. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan. Arrange the pepperoni slices on top.
- Bake the Pie: Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown. For crispier pepperoni, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
