Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425°. Sauté first 4 ingredients in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat 10 minutes or until meat crumbles and is no longer pink and vegetables are lightly browned. Remove from skillet, and drain well.
  2. Stir together ricotta cheese, eggs, and seasoning.
  3. Unroll 1 can of dough on a lightly greased baking sheet. Stretch dough into a 10- x 13-inch rectangle. Spoon 1/4 cup pizza sauce, 1 cup ricotta mixture, and half of ground beef mixture on half of rectangle, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle with 1 cup cheese. Moisten edges with water; fold dough over, pressing and crimping edges to seal. Cut 3 (1-inch) slits on top of dough to allow steam to escape. Repeat procedure with remaining dough, pizza sauce, ricotta mixture, ground beef mixture, and cheese.
  4. Bake at 425° for 24 to 26 minutes or until golden. Serve with additional warm pizza sauce, if desired.
  5. *Marinara sauce may be substituted.
  6. Note: For testing purposes only, we used Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle Seasoning Blend.
