Description
These Pizza Burgers combine the flavors of a classic pizza with the convenience of a burger. Savory ground beef is mixed with onions, pizza sauce, mushrooms, and herbs, then piled onto toasted hamburger buns and topped with gooey mozzarella cheese. A quick broil in the oven melts the cheese to perfection, creating a delicious and satisfying meal.
