Ingredients

  • 1 recipe Easy Basic Meatballs
  • 2 cans (11 oz. each) refrigerated thin crust pizza dough
  • 1 jar (14 oz.) CLASSICO Traditional Pizza Sauce
  • 1/2 cup chopped green peppers
  • 1-1/2 cups KRAFT Shredded Mozzarella Cheese with a TOUCH OF PHILADELPHIA
  • 1/4 cup KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 400ºF.

Prepare Easy Basic Meatballs as directed, except use 1 lb. each extra-lean ground beef and ground pork, shape the meat mixture into 24 (2-inch) meatballs, and increase the baking time to 15 min. or until meatballs are done (160ºF).

Unroll 1 pizza crust; press lightly onto bottom of 13x9-inch pan sprayed with cooking spray; spread with half the pizza sauce. Top with meatballs, arranging in 4 rows of 6 meatballs each. Cover with remaining sauce; top with peppers, shredded cheese and Parmesan.

Unroll remaining pizza dough; place over pizza. Pierce with large fork at 2-1/2-inch intervals to allow steam to escape.

Bake 20 min. or until golden brown.
