1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder
-
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
-
Salt and black pepper to taste
-
1 package store-bought pizza dough (or homemade, about 1 lb)
-
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
-
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
-
2 tablespoons butter, melted
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
-
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until well combined.
-
Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into a ¼-inch thick rectangle, then cut into 3-inch squares.
-
Place a portion of beef on each square and top with cheddar and mozzarella cubes. Add optional fillings like onions, pickles, or jalapeños if desired.
-
Fold the dough over the filling and pinch edges tightly to seal, creating a pocket.
-
Mix melted butter, minced garlic, and Parmesan. Brush generously over each bomb.
-
Bake for 18–22 minutes until golden brown and cheese is melted, rotating halfway through.
-
Let cool 5 minutes before serving to allow filling to set.

For extra flavor, serve with ketchup, ranch, honey mustard, or sriracha mayo. Assemble ahead and refrigerate for up to 24 hours or freeze for up to 3 months.
