Pizza Burgers

Pizza Burgers are a fun twist on Pizza Night that everyone will love! This recipe can be adapted with your families favorite pizza toppings.

Our family LOVES pizza! So I am always looking for fun new ways to make it knowing that the boys will gobble it right up! We are a pepperoni pizza family but I love all different kinds of toppings so I love that this recipe can be individualized.

Pizza Burgers

This recipe is kid-friendly and you can customize each individual pizza based on what that person likes. I usually use half ground beef and half sausage when I make this recipe for a little extra flavor. You could use either all ground beef or sausage. Other topping ideas would be peppers, mushrooms or olives. I have been buying the Prego Veggie Smart Pizza Sauce to use in recipes like this as a sneaky way to get some more veggies in our diets.
