Ready in: 35 mins

Ingredients

Serves: 4

• 1 (7 ounce) box macaroni and cheese mix
• Milk and butter as needed
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1/2 pound ground beef
• 3/4 cup chopped onion
• 1 1/4 cups pizza sauce
• 1 (4 ounce) mushroom stems and pieces, drained
• 28 pepperoni slices
• 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Preparation method

Prep: 25 mins | Cook: 10 mins

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and coat a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Bring a saucepan of water to boil; cook and prepare macaroni and cheese as the box directs. When the macaroni and cheese is completely prepared, whisk in the beaten eggs.
3. Pour the egg and cheesy pasta combination onto the baking sheet and pat into a round 12-inch pizza shape. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from heat.
4. While crust is baking, combine ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, breaking into small pieces, until beef is thoroughly browned. Pour off excess liquid, then toss with pizza sauce.
5. Pour the ground beef sauce mixture on top of the baked pasta crust. Arrange mushrooms and pepperoni on top of the sauce, then top with cheese.
6. Bake for about 15 minutes, until pizza is heated through and cheese is bubbling. Do not underbake; the egg in the crust needs to cook completely.
