Ingredients

  • 1 large green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1 tsp sal t
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 lb refrigerated pizza dough or bread dough

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until cooked through, breaking it into small crumbles.
  3. Add the diced bell peppers and onions to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are softened.
  4. Stir in minced garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano. Cook for 1 additional minute, then remove from heat and drain excess fat.
  5. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12x15 inch rectangle.
  6. Spread the beef and pepper mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides.
  7. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the beef layer.
  8. Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough into a log and pinch the seams to seal.
  9. Place the roll seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  10. Brush the top with the beaten egg evenly to create a glaze.
  11. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the bread is deep golden brown and firm to the touch.
  12. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing into 2-inch rounds.
