For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground beef with sautéed mushrooms, zucchini, or bell peppers. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as provolone, ricotta, or a blend of Italian cheeses. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the spaghetti sauce for a touch of heat. To prevent the crust from browning too quickly, tent it with foil during the last 10-15 minutes of baking.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
StepHeat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease. Transfer ground beef to a large bowl. (10 minutes)
03
StepBring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain. Transfer spaghetti to the bowl with ground beef; mix in spaghetti sauce and Parmesan cheese until well combined. (20 minutes)
04
StepUnroll pizza dough onto a baking sheet. Starting with a long edge, cut the 2 outer thirds of the crust into 1-inch horizontal strips, leaving the center third uncut. Spoon spaghetti mixture onto the center third from top to bottom. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over spaghetti mixture. (15 minutes)
05
StepBegin braiding by pulling a dough strip across the filling, then pulling another strip from the opposite side over the first strip. Pinch strips together and continue to braid until the filling is covered with braided dough. (10 minutes)
06
StepMix olive oil and garlic in a small bowl. Brush olive oil mixture over braid. (5 minutes)
07
StepBake in the preheated oven until the filling is hot and crust is golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Cut into slices to serve. (30 minutes)
