Here’s a fun twist: Cheeseburger Garbage Bread—all the flavors of a cheeseburger stuffed inside a cheesy, savory bread 🧀🍔
Cheeseburger Garbage Bread
Ingredients
For the dough
- 1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
For the filling
- 1/2 lb ground beef
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or a mix of cheddar & mozzarella)
- 1/2 cup pickles, chopped (optional)
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp mustard
- 1 tsp garlic powder
For topping
- 1 egg, beaten (for brushing)
- 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the beef filling
- In a skillet, cook ground beef and onion over medium heat until beef is browned.
- Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Stir in ketchup, mustard, and chopped pickles. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Mix in the shredded cheese.
- Prepare the dough
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Roll pizza dough into a large rectangle on a floured surface.
- Assemble
- Spread the cheeseburger filling evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border.
- Roll the dough tightly like a jelly roll.
- Pinch seams and tuck in ends. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet.
- Bake
- Brush the top with beaten egg and sprinkle sesame seeds if desired.
- Bake 25–30 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve
- Let cool a few minutes, then slice and serve hot.
Tips
- Add bacon bits for extra flavor.
- Use mini dough rounds for party-size hand-held versions.
- Serve with ketchup, mustard, or your favorite burger sauce on the side.
I can also make a faster, skillet version that doesn’t require rolling the dough if you want a quick weeknight option. Do you want me to do that?
