1

lb lean (at least 80%) ground beef

1

medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)

1

small green bell pepper, chopped (1/2 cup)

1

jar (14 oz) pepperoni-flavored or regular pizza sauce

1/2

cup sliced ripe olives, if desired

6

sandwich buns, split

1

cup shredded pizza cheese blend (4 oz)

Preparation

In 10-inch skillet, cook beef, onion and bell pepper over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is brown; drain.
