Everybody's Favorite Pizza Burgers

Great for sleepovers, birthday parties, or any time you want to make your kids happy.

• Ready In: 25 mins
• Serves: 5
• Yields: 16 halves

Ingredients

• 1  lb ground beef
•  salt & pepper (to taste)
• 14  ounces  pizza sauce (I use homemade style Ragu pizza sauce)
• 2  tablespoons parmesan cheese
• 8  ounces  shredded mozzarella cheese (or pizza blend)
• 8  hamburger buns

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Brown the beef in a large frying pan. Salt & pepper to taste.
3. After the beef is done, drain the excess grease & then place back into the pan. Turn the heat onto low, add the pizza sauce & parmesan cheese, cook for 5 more minutes.
4. Place the hamburger buns halves on a large baking sheet. Spoon the beef onto the halves & top with cheese.
5. Bake in the oven until the cheese is melted. (I like the bottoms a little crispy so I cook it a little longer.).
6. Variations: If you like veggies you could add onions & peppers to the beef while it is browning or top with mushrooms.
