Deep Dish Pizza Casserole

I made this over the weekend, and it was AWESOME. I used a bit more sauce than this calls for, and a can of diced tomatoes, to get a few extra veggies.

• 1 lb lean ground beef or turkey
• 1 15 oz jar chunky Italian-style tomato sauce
• Cooking spray
• 1 10 oz can refrigerated pizza crust dough
• 6 1 oz slices part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided

Cook meat in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned, stirring until it crumbles. Drian, if necessary and return to skillet. Add tomato sauce and cook until heated.

While meat cooks, coat a 9x13 dish with cooking spray. Unroll pizza dough and press into bottom and halfway-up sides of baking dish. Line bottom of pizza crust with 3 slices mozzarella cheese. Top with meat mixture.Bake, uncovered, at 425 degrees for 12 minutes. Top with remaining 3 cheese slices, and bake 5 additional mintues or until crust is browned and cheese melts. Cool 5 minutes before serving. ENJOY!
