Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 cans (13.8 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Classic Crust Pizza Crust
  • 1 pound mozzarella cheese, grated
  • 1/2 pound leftover cooked spaghetti or other pasta, with sauce (marinara, Alfredo, etc.)
  • 1/4 pound pepperoni, optional
  • Salt and pepper

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Open one pizza crust and roll it out lightly on a floured surface to a 14-inch circle.
  • Transfer the dough to a deep-dish oven-safe skillet (cast iron works best). Work the dough up the sides of the skillet.
  • Sprinkle half of the grated cheese in the crust and top with the leftover pasta. Then season the pasta with salt and pepper and top with remainder of the cheese.
  • Roll out second pizza dough and cover the skillet with the dough. Crimp the edges to seal in the filling and make a crust. Use a serrated knife to cut a few holes in the top so steam can escape.
  • Bake deep-dish pizza for 30 minutes until the edges are a deep golden brown and the center is cooked through.
  • Let pizza cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving in big wedges.
