Meatza: A Meat Lover's Pizza

The word "Meatza" is a playful combination of "meat" and "pizza," and in this recipe, we use meat as the base instead of dough, for a high-protein dish that will keep you full for hours.

Ingredients (serves 4):

• 1 lb ground meat
  
• 2 eggs
  
• 1 cup shredded cheddar
  
• 1 cup tomato puree
  
• Toppings of your choice: e.g., corn or diced bell peppers
  
• 1 cup pizza cheese
  
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Mix the ground meat with the eggs and cheddar. Season with salt and pepper.
   
2. In a pan with a bit of oil, shape the mixture into a pizza and cook over medium heat until done.
   
3. Remove the meat pizza base from the pan and top it with tomato puree, your chosen toppings, and pizza cheese.
   
4. Return to the pan or place in the oven and broil until the Meatza is fully cooked and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Enjoy your hearty and delicious Meatza!
