Description
A giant pizza roll filled with melty cheese, ground beef, and fresh veggies, this Cheesy Beef Garbage Bread bakes up to be a crowd-pleaser with minimal effort.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can refrigerated pizza dough
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup pepperoni slices
- 1/2 cup cooked ground beef crumbles
- 1/4 cup diced green bell pepper
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 1/4 cup sliced black olives
- 1/4 cup marinara sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
- In a skillet, cook the ground beef crumbles until browned. Drain excess fat and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add olive oil and sauté the onion and green bell pepper until softened, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked ground beef, sautéed onion and bell pepper, pepperoni slices, sliced black olives, marinara sauce, and Italian seasoning. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly flour a clean work surface. Unroll the refrigerated pizza dough and roll it out into a large rectangle, about 12 by 16 inches and 1/4 inch thick.
- Leave a 1-inch border around the edges of the rolled out dough. Spread the prepared meat and veggie filling mixture over the dough within the border. Sprinkle mozzarella and cheddar cheese evenly over the filling.
- Starting from one long side of the rectangle, roll the dough up into a tight log. Pinch the seam along the bottom and tuck in the ends to seal tightly.
- Transfer the rolled loaf to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make several shallow slits across the top of the loaf to allow steam to escape during baking.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the loaf rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. Slice into thick portions and serve warm.
Notes
Let the bread rest to ensure clean slices and to keep the filling from spilling out.
