Recipe Tips

tip 1

Making small slits in the top crust of your stuffed pizza allows steam to release steadily during baking. This helps prevent larger holes from forming and allows for more even baking.
tip 2

Brown 1 pound each of Italian sausage and ground beef, and use half for the recipe today and freeze the rest for another day.
