Broiled Pizza Burgers

Broiled Pizza Burgers
"My mother made Broiled Pizza Burgers when I was growing up. We like them for Sunday supper," says Ann Bailes of Anderson, South Carolina. "They're even faster to fix if you use pre-browned hamburger from the freezer. We sometimes substitute slices of cheddar for the process cheese."
