Ingredients

1 can (14.5 oz./411 g)
1 tbsp (15 mL) oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 large green bell pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped
8 oz. (250 g) 90% lean ground beef
8 oz. (250 g) bulk hot Italian sausage
3 garlic cloves, pressed
1 can (16 oz./454 g) chili beans in mild chili sauce, undrained
1 can (14.5 oz./411 g) fire roasted tomatoes, drained
1 jar (14 oz./397 g) pizza sauce
2 tbsp (30 mL) Everything but the Pizza™ Seasoning
Optional: Sliced pepperoni, grated mozzarella cheese, sliced black olives, chopped mushrooms, chopped parsley

Directions

Heat the oil in a 3-qt. (2.8-L) Stainless Steel Sauce Pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
Add the onion and bell pepper to the pan. Cook until slightly softened, about 2–3 minutes.
Add the ground beef, Italian sausage, and garlic. Cook over medium-high heat, breaking the beef into crumbles until it’s no longer pink, 8–10 minutes. Drain the excess liquid.
Stir in the remaining ingredients. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Top each serving with mozzarella cheese and additional toppings, if you’d like.

Cook's Tips:

Vegetarian Win: Swap the beef with plant-based meat crumbles, swap the beef broth with veggie broth, and omit the Italian sausage.

Pizza Perfection: Add ½ tbsp (7 mL) of seasoning in step 4 to get more pizza flavor!

Protein Preference: You can substitute the ground beef with ground chicken or turkey. Make It Mild: For less heat, use sweet Italian sausage instead of hot Italian sausage.
