Easy Pizza Burgers
Do you want an easy Pizza burger recipe? Here is a great recipe that is easy and that kids can enjoy as well as adults.
Ingredients:
1/2 lb extra lean ground beef
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 can (60z) tomato paste
3/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning (Andy made his own, he doesn’t believe in premixed–i know there was crushed red)
a handful mushroom pieces
4 English muffins, split (which for some odd reason, we actually had)
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (we actually had a ball of cheese from paninis)
1. In non-stick skillet, cook ground beef and onion over med. heat until beef is thoroughly cooked; drain. Stir in tomato paste, Italian seasoning and mushrooms. (This mixture can keep up to 3 days before using if you put in the fridge)
2. Put on English muffin. We toasted the English muffin, but that was our preference. If you refrigerate, spread the mixture onto the English muffin, sprinkle cheese on top, and place in microwave for about 2 minutes.
Andy doubled the mixture and this was like 4 meals for us. 2 lunches and 2 suppers. Very cheap and easy meal. I was also thinking this would be a good recipe for a kids birthday party. Kids would have their own mini pizza’s.
