Lower Fat Hamburger Pizza Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Mix the baking mix and yeast and stir in the hot water.
• Turn the dough onto a well-floured surface and knead until smooth, about 20 times.
• Let the dough rest a few minutes.
• While the dough is resting, cook and stir the meat and onion in a large skillet until the onion is tender and the meat is brown.
• Drain off the excess fat.
• Stir in the tomato sauce, oregano leaves, and pepper and set aside.
• Divide the dough in half.
• Roll each half on an ungreased baking sheet into a rectangle, 13 X 10-inches or on a pizza pan 12-inches in diameter.
• Pinch the edges to make a slight rim.
• Spread the meat mixture almost to the edges.
• Top with the green pepper and cheeses.
• Bake until the crust is brown and the filling is hot and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Cut into squares or wedges and serve.
• NOTE: If desired, you can use shredded Cheddar Cheese for the Mozzarella in the above recipe.

Steps:

• Leave the pizza crust container sitting on the counter for about 10 minutes, it is easier to spread the dough at room temperature.
• Open the container and spread it out on a greased pizza pan.
• Bake in the oven for 7-10 minutes at 375 only until the dough starts to brown.
• Remove the dough from the oven.
• Spread the tomato sauce over the dough.
• Spread the hamburger over the sauce.
• Spread the shredded mozzarella cheese over the hamburger.
• Sprinkle the pineapple over the cheese.
• Bake the pizza another 10 minutes at 375 or until the cheese is melted and the dough just starts to turn brown.

Steps:

• Combine beef, tomato paste, salt, sugar, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, pepper, and oregano in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate to let flavors marry, about 4 hours.
• Form beef mixture into 8 thin patties. Place 1 slice of mozzarella cheese on each of 4 patties; leave at least a 1/2-inch border, breaking up the cheese as needed. Place remaining patties on top and pinch edges to seal in the cheese.
• Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Fry burgers until browned and centers reach 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 6 to 7 minutes per side. Serve on buns.
