Description

Lasagna Wellington (Lasagna Stuffed Pizza Crust) is the ultimate comfort food mash-up—creamy, cheesy lasagna wrapped in golden, buttery pizza crust. It’s a show-stopping dish perfect for family dinners, special occasions, or when you want to seriously impress with a fun twist on two Italian-American classics.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 24 oz marinara sauce
  • 10 oz ricotta cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 Pillsbury pizza crust
  • 5 fresh lasagna pasta sheets, oven-ready (5.5 x 9.5 inches each, or more if using smaller noodles)
  • 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 3 tablespoons garlic butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons grated parmesan

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook ground beef and diced onion until beef is browned and onions are soft. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  3. Add marinara sauce and Italian seasoning. Simmer for 5–7 minutes, then remove from heat.
  4. Lay the pizza crust flat on the prepared baking sheet. Arrange the lasagna sheets down the center of the crust, slightly overlapping.
  5. Spread half of the meat sauce over the pasta sheets, then add dollops of ricotta cheese and a layer of shredded mozzarella.
  6. Repeat with another layer of pasta, meat sauce, ricotta, and mozzarella until all ingredients are used (ending with mozzarella on top).
  7. Fold the sides of the pizza dough over the lasagna filling, overlapping slightly to create a sealed “Wellington.” Pinch edges to secure.
  8. Brush the entire crust with melted garlic butter and sprinkle with parmesan.
  9. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and cooked through.
  10. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with extra marinara on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add cooked Italian sausage along with the ground beef.
  • If your lasagna sheets are smaller, overlap them slightly so the filling doesn’t leak through.
  • This dish can be prepped ahead of time and baked just before serving.
  • Pairs perfectly with a fresh green salad or roasted vegetables.
