Deliciously Irresistible Cowboy Pizza Recipe

This is a copycat recipe of Papa Murphy’s cowboy pizza — it is filling and very hearty with two meats, mushrooms, olives, and three different cheeses. The best part is that you can make two plus pizzas for the price it costs to buy one. Make one dinner and freeze one for later!
