Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 pound bulk pork sausage
3 cups biscuit/baking mix
2/3 cup water
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1 cup canned diced tomatoes
1 medium onion, diced
1 small green pepper, diced
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon onion salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 can (4 ounces) mushroom stems and pieces, drained
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
2-1/2 cups (10 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions

In a large skillet, cook beef and sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain and set aside. In a large bowl, combine biscuit mix and water to form a soft dough.
Press into a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. In a saucepan, combine the next 10 ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes; spoon over crust. Crumble meat mixture over sauce; top with mushrooms. Sprinkle with cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.
Cover loosely with foil and bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-10 minutes longer or until the pizza is browned and cheese is melted. Yield: 16-18 servings.
