Best Rachael Rays Meatza Pizza Burgers Recipes

RACHAEL RAY'S MEATZA PIZZA BURGERS

Steps:

• Combine ground beef, tomato paste, chorizo or pepperoni, oregano, garlic, and pepper. Form into 4 patties.
• Now it's time to cook the burgers. Ray's directions are for grilling: cook burgers for 5 minutes on each side over medium-high gas heat or charcoal. But I bet you can just pan fry them or pop them on an indoor grill.
• In the last minute, melt a slice of provolone on each burger. Serve with romaine lettuce and slice tomato on crusty rolls.

QUICK AND EASY PIZZA BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
• Mix together all ingredients from ground beef through pizza sauce.
• Separate the halves of the hamburger buns, placing each half face-up on a baking sheet.
• Spread the meat mixture on each of the hamburger bun halves. (I have found the fastest way to do this is using Pampered Chef's medium scoop and dividing the meat mixture between the bun halves; then, using the back of a large soup spoon, smooth the meat mixture evenly over the bun.).
• Top each with a slice of mozzarella.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.

EVERYBODY'S FAVORITE PIZZA BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Brown the beef in a large frying pan. Salt & pepper to taste.
• After the beef is done, drain the excess grease & then place back into the pan. Turn the heat onto low, add the pizza sauce & parmesan cheese, cook for 5 more minutes.
• Place the hamburger buns halves on a large baking sheet. Spoon the beef onto the halves & top with cheese.
• Bake in the oven until the cheese is melted. (I like the bottoms a little crispy so I cook it a little longer.).
• Variations: If you like veggies you could add onions & peppers to the beef while it is browning or top with mushrooms.

MEXICAN MEAT-ZZA: MEXICAN DEEP-DISH PAN PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix together 2 packages muffin mix with 2 eggs, 4 tablespoons melted butter (melt in microwave 30 seconds), 1 1/2 cups milk and frozen corn kernels. Wipe a nonstick skillet with a little extra or vegetable oil and pour in the muffin mix. Use a large skillet, 10 to 12 inch. Choose a pan with oven safe handle or, double-wrap handle with foil to protect it in the oven. Place pan in oven and bake 12 to 15 minutes in center of the oven until light golden in color.
• Brown the meat over medium high heat in a second skillet in extra or vegetable oil, 2 turns of the pan. Add onions and spices and cook meat 5 minutes more.
• Remove cornbread from oven and top with meat, cheese, and veggies. Add pan back to oven and cook 5 minutes more to melt cheese. Garnish with cilantro, optional. Cut into 8 wedges and serve the deep dish pan pizza from the skillet. Pass taco sauce at the table to sprinkle on top.
