October is National Pizza Month. The #SundaySupper Tastemakers couldn't let this National event pass us by! Today we are sharing our Best Pizza Recipes so you can celebrate National Pizza Month with a different homemade pizza every day...twice even!
Recipe Prep Tips
- Enjoy Spaghetti and Meatballs first by making my homemade Red Sauce and Easy Meatballs. The sauce recipe is very easy to make and simmers all day in a slow cooker for best results. The meatball recipe uses fresh ingredients to maximize flavor and cooks in the oven for easy cleanup.
- Purchase your favorite pizza dough from your local grocery store or even from your favorite pizzeria. The Publix Bakery makes a delicious pizza dough and they even sell it already rolled out! Totally worth the few extra pennies!
- I cook the dough just until it starts to brown very slightly and then I top it with 1 cup of Red Sauce. I caution you not to use too much sauce or the pizza could end up soggy. You can always serve a little sauce on the side for dipping if you like.
- Cut the meatballs in half so they aren't too bulky on the pizza. It also helps to stretch them. I use about 12-15 meatballs sliced in half when I make this pizza, but how many you use will depend on how closely you arrange them.
- I use 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese. You can use more or less depending on how cheesy you like your pizza. I've found a cup works best for our tastes.

Meatball Sub Pizza
Published 10/23/2016
This incredibly tasty and easy recipe for my Meatball Sub Pizza is even better than the traditional sandwich!
Ingredients
- 16 ounce Pizza Dough
- 1 cup Life Tastes Good's Red Sauce Recipe (or your favorite jarred sauce if you prefer)
- 12-15 Life Tastes Good's Easy Meatballs Recipe, cut in half
- 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
- Fresh basil for garnish
Instructions
- Spray 16" pizza tray with cooking spray. Roll out dough into 16" round and place dough on pizza tray. I like to let it set out for about an hour to rise a little before baking, but you can bake right away if you prefer.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Bake pizza dough in the oven for 8-10 minutes until it just starts to brown lightly.
- Remove the dough from the oven and top with 1 cup Red Sauce and spread it around to cover the dough. Top the sauce with the halved meatballs and sprinkle with 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese. Bake in the oven for another 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted nicely and the crust is toasted to your liking.
- Remove from the oven and let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with freshly chopped basil leaves. Enjoy!

Uhm a meatball sub on a pizza sign me up!!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to use those extra meatballs in a pizza! This sure looks better than any home delivered pizza!
ReplyDeleteWe prebake the dough a bit at work too. It makes a much sturdier crust!
ReplyDeleteMeatball subs were always a fave with me, can't imagine how yummy it would be on a pizza!
ReplyDeleteWe LOVE meatball subs. You know we're going to LOVE this meatball sub pizza. YUM!
ReplyDeleteThis was less than ok. Seems like you put something together with leftovers, and not worthy of posting as a recipe buuuut I thought I had basil when I didn’t, and that would have obviously made it better. Not blown away :(
