Look at that pizza, isn't it just calling your name? Enough said, here is the recipe.
Ingredients
2 pizza doughs (Homemade OR Frozen/Defrosted)
Left over Meatballs with some of the sauce they were cooked in, you will need about 1 cup of sauce and 16 meatballs total depending on size of meatballs.
3 cups mozzarella
Directions
Place a stone on the bottom rack and set oven to 550. If you don't have a stone set the rack on the second to last section of the oven.
Mash the meatballs with a fork still leaving some chunks.
Pizza Stone Method: Lightly oil your hands with olive oil and spread out your doughs on to 2 pieces of parchment paper each on a flat cookie sheet or upside down sheet pan using your hands allowing it to rest a few minutes if it starts springing back. This is how I always roll out my dough and I never have to use flour or a rolling pin. Just give it a rest and come back and eventually it will spread out as thin as you like it!
Spread on the sauce and evenly distribute the mashed meatballs, divide the cheese evenly between the 2 pizza doughs.
Bake 1 pizza at a time, below are both methods:
Pizza Pan Method:Lightly oil your hands with olive oil and spread out your doughs on to 2 pizza pans, I like the kind with the holes in them, using your hands allowing it to rest a few minutes if it starts springing back. This is how I always roll out my dough and I never have to use flour or a rolling pin. Just give it a rest and come back and eventually it will spread out as thin as you like it!
Spread on the sauce and evenly distribute the mashed meatballs, divide the cheese evenly between the 2 pizza doughs.
Bake 1 pizza at a time, here are both methods:
Stone: Slide the parchment off the pan and on to the stone and bake for 3 minutes. Open the door and quickly slip out the paper leaving the pizza on the stone and continue cooking for 7 more minutes or until it is golden brown like in the photo.
Pizza Pan: Place the pan in the oven (on the track in the second to last section of the oven) and bake for 10-12 minutes or golden brown.
I love the flavors just everything about this awesome pizza.
