Instructions
Brown and scramble the meat OR veggie alternative in a large non stick pan until cooked through.
While that is cooking, blend or puree the onion, garlic and sweet potatoes together until you have a smooth consistency.
Pour into the pan to cook along with the meat for a few minutes.
Toss or stretch the dough to your desired thickness and place on a greased pizza sheet.
Transfer the cooked filling onto half of the dough then fold the other half over the top to make a pocket.
Pinch the edges tightly closed and then make a few cuts in the top for steam to escape.
Bake at 400 degrees for about 14 to 16 minutes or until golden and the crust is hard when you carefully tap on it.
Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting into it.
