Easy & Cheesy Beef-flavored Pizza
Easy Cheesy Beef-flavored Pizza
"There are so many recipes for creating the best pizza. But this recipe is a treat for meat lovers who want to enjoy a deeper meatier flavor. You can add some fresh herbs to the pizza after it’s cooked. Herbs such as thyme, oregano, basil, and rosemary would be great here. You can also add slices of chorizo instead of the classic pepperoni. This will also deepen the flavor and create a meatier aroma to the pizza. You can also add some hot sauce in the tomato sauce mixture for a fiery kick."
