• 1/2 lb Italian sausage
• 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 8 slices mozzarella or provolone cheese

Steps

1. Combine the ground beef, Italian sausage, and Italian seasoning in a bowl. Knead together and form into 4 large, thick patties.
2. Cook the burgers in a skillet over medium-high heat for several minutes, then flip.
3. Lay 2 slices of cheese on each patty, then several slices of pepperoni.
4. Add red onion, green bell pepper, black olives, and mushrooms. Spoon a little marinara on top, then cover with another slice of cheese.
5. Cover the skillet and cook until the burgers are cooked through and the cheese is melted.

7. Spread both halves with marinara and sprinkle with Parmesan.
