Grandkids and Deep Dish Pizza

My middle daughter and her precious children payed me a much needed visit today. They have been at the beach with a lifelong friend and her two children. A yummy, kid friendly lunch was a necessity for the special occasion. I decided to let my little chefs assist me in preparing Deep Dish Pizza, Buttered Niblets Corn, and chocolate pudding. My guests arrived around noon- just in time to layer the pizza ingredients in a 9X13 inch pan.

This is very serious work - no time for smiling at the camera

Deep Dish Pizza

1 can Pillsbury Pizza Dough

1 pound ground chuck - browned and seasoned with salt and pepper

Hormel Pepperoni

1 jar Ragu Original Pizza Sauce

2 Cups shredded Mozzarella Cheese

Preheat oven to 375 degrees 

Unroll, pizza crust and spread in bottom of 9 X 13 inch pan

Spread Pizza Sauce over dough

Distribute seasoned and cooked ground chuck over sauce

Place Pepperoni over meat - we fill our pizza heavily with pepperoni

Sprinkle Mozzarella over all

Bake in 375 degree oven 15 to 20 minutes until crust is browned and cheese has melted

The little artists at work while we are patiently awaiting to enjoy our pizza.
