Banana Pops with Yogurt (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Base Ingredients

01 - 1 store-bought or homemade pie crust
02 - 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
03 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
04 - 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
05 - 1 pound of ground beef
06 - 1 teaspoon powdered garlic
07 - 1 finely chopped small onion

→ Topping Options

08 - 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
09 - 1/2 cup of your favorite red pizza sauce
10 - Any additional toppings you like (think mushrooms, peppers, or olives)
11 - 1/2 cup of thin-sliced pepperoni

# Instructions:

01 - Set your oven to heat up to 350°F (175°C). Press the pie crust into a 9-inch dish and keep it nearby.
02 - Heat a skillet on medium and cook the onion with the ground beef until all the meat loses its pink color. Get rid of any leftover grease. Add salt, garlic powder, pepper, and Italian seasoning, and stir well.
03 - Start with the beef mix at the bottom of the pie crust. Spread the pizza sauce right on top of that. Follow up with a layer of mozzarella, and finish off with pepperoni and any extra toppings.
04 - Bake for 20 to 25 minutes at the preheated temperature. You’ll know it’s ready when the cheese is bubbly and has a golden touch, and the crust looks golden brown.
05 - Before cutting it up, let the pie sit undisturbed for about 5 minutes. Eat it while it’s warm.

# Notes:

01 - Switch up the toppings to suit your taste buds.
02 - Want it spicier? Throw in some crushed red chili flakes with the beef mix.
03 - You can keep leftovers in the fridge for 3 days.
04 - After baking, freeze it for as long as 2 months if needed.
