Enjoy the flavors of lasagna and pizza combined in this Meatball Lasagna Pizza. It's a delicious twist on two classic Italian dishes that will satisfy your pizza cravings with a meatball and cheese-packed delight.
Ingredients: 1 pizza dough. 1/2 cup marinara sauce. 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese. 1/2 cup ricotta cheese. 1/2 cup cooked meatballs, sliced. 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese. 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano. 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder. Fresh basil leaves for garnish.
Instructions: Preheat your oven to 475F 245C and place a pizza stone or baking sheet inside to heat. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer the dough to a piece of parchment paper. Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the pizza dough, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Distribute spoonfuls of ricotta cheese evenly across the pizza. Evenly arrange the sliced meatballs on top of the cheese. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, and garlic powder over the pizza. Carefully transfer the parchment paper with the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh basil leaves, and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving.
