Caramelized Onion and Beef Pizza

Pizza is a huge hit in our house! We love making it at home and changing up the toppings.

This pizza plays off classic flavors, but it just a little more special with sweet caramelized onions, crispy ground beef, and calabria chilies.

You can use whatever cheese you love, but I really like the Tillamook Italian blend. The thick cut pieces of provolone and mozzarella melt nicely. Then top everything with a handful of fresh herbs!
