  • 1 ~ 8 ounce ricotta cheese
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup finely shredded parmesan cheese

  • 1 teaspoon basil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

Instructions
 

  • Brown the ground beef in a medium skillet, and add half of the chopped onion.
  • Drain the ground beef and add in the tomato sauce, oregano, basil and minced garlic. Simmer on low for about 10 minutes.
  • While the sauce is simmering preheat the oven to 350`F.
  • In a large 11 by 17 inch casserole dish layer in small amount of the sauce/ meat mixture, a layer of lasagna noodles, 1/3 of the ricotta cheese, another 1/4 of the remaining sauce, 1/4 of the mozzarella and parmesan cheese.
  • Repeat the layers and add in a layer of 1/2 of the pepperoni.
  • Repeat the layers one more time, except the pepperoni.
  • Repeat the layer one final time, but you should be out of ricotta cheese.
  • Top the pizza lasagna with the last layer of cheese, then add a final layer of pepperoni, the chopped peppers, and the rest of the onion. You could also add other pizza toppings like banana peppers, bacon bits, mushrooms, etc.
  • Bake at 350`F for 40 to 50 minutes. Cover with foil for about the first 20 minutes so the cheese doesn’t brown too fast.
  • Remove from the oven and let the pizza lasagna cool for a couple minutes, then cut into squares and serve.
