For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of tomato paste to the sauce mixture. Feel free to customize the toppings! Add sliced mushrooms, bell peppers, or olives to the meat sauce. If you don't have hamburger buns, English muffins or small rolls will also work well. These pizza buns can be assembled ahead of time and baked just before serving. Reheat leftover pizza buns in a toaster oven or microwave until heated through.
