- to taste salt
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a skillet, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant and golden.
- Introduce the cooked beef, dried oregano, garlic powder, chili powder, and salt. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
- On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a large rectangle.
Filling and Assembling
- Spread the beef mixture evenly along the center of the dough. Top with provolone and Parmesan cheese.
- Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal. Cut into 6-8 pieces.

Baking

- Allow to cool slightly before serving with marinara or cheese sauce for dipping.
Notes
Tips include ensuring dough is well-kneaded, seasoning adequately, and allowing breadsticks to rest before serving. For a healthier option, consider using whole wheat dough or leaner cuts of beef.
