Ingredients

• 1 pound pizza dough
• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 0.5 cup ketchup
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C).

Step 2

On a floured surface, stretch and roll out the pizza dough to fit a large pizza pan or baking sheet. Place the dough on the prepared pan.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and green bell pepper, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.

Step 6

Stir in the ketchup, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine and the mixture to thicken.

Step 7

Spoon the Sloppy Joe mixture evenly over the prepared pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 8

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the Sloppy Joe mixture.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.

Step 11

Slice and serve while hot. Enjoy your Cheesy Sloppy Joe Pizza!
