Ingredients
1 lb lean ground beef (85/90%)
1 tube refrigerated pizza dough (13.8 oz)
¾ cup pizza sauce, divided
1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Beef
Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef for about 6–8 minutes, breaking it apart until fully browned. Drain any excess grease, then mix in ¼ cup of the pizza sauce. Allow the mixture to cool slightly before using.
Step 2: Roll Out the Dough
Place the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface and gently stretch it into a 12×8-inch rectangle.
Step 3: Add the Toppings
Spread the remaining ½ cup pizza sauce evenly across the dough, leaving a ½-inch border around the edges. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the sauce, then distribute the beef mixture across the top.
Step 4: Roll and Slice
Starting from the long side, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Pinch the seam to seal and place it seam-side down. Slice the log into 8 equal pieces, reshaping them slightly if needed.

Step 5: Bake
Arrange the roll-ups cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle Italian seasoning on top. Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
Step 6: Rest and Serve
Let the rolls rest for 5 minutes so the cheese sets slightly. Serve warm with extra pizza sauce on the side for dipping.
