• 1/2 pint grape tomatoes, halved
• 1/3 pound ground beef

5. Arrange the red onion and grape tomatoes on top of the cheese.
6. Crumble the ground beef on top and season with salt and pepper.
7. Bake the pizza for about 20 minutes until the crust starts to turn golden brown and the center is cooked.
