Cheeseburger Pizza

Cheeseburger Pizza
(adapted from KraftRecipes)



Ingredients
1 recipe pizza dough
1 package  frozen Morningstar Farms Burger Crumbles
1 cup pizza sauce
½ cup ketchup
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1  tomato, sliced
¾ cup shredded pizza cheese

Directions
1.)    Preheat oven to 425°F.
2.)    Spread pizza dough onto pizza stone sprayed with non-stick cooking spray (or brushed with oil).
3.)    Combine crumbles, sauce and ketchup; spread onto crust. Top with remaining ingredients.
4.)    Bake 20 min. or until crust is golden brown and crumbles are heated through.

This pizza is very filling.  The original recipe had half as much crumbles, sauce and ketchup, but I found that it only covered about half of my dough.  I think that I cooked it for about 23 minutes to ensure that the middle of the crust was cooked through.  It came out with a slightly browned crust, but not crispy!  I added a touch of garlic powder and chili flakes to enhance flavor profile.  The pizza was chewy and soft – the crispness of the crumbles and onions was baked out, but that’s not a bad thing!  The taste was very good, but my husband added more cheese.  I like this simple recipe because you add what you want to it.  Next time (or with leftovers), I may try adding some mustard or chopped pickles.  Yummy!
