Preparation
Cook the beef
Preheat the oven to 450°F. In a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the beef* and garlic; season with ¾ of the spices and S&P. Cook, breaking up the meat, 4 to 6 min., until cooked through.
Assemble & bake the pizzas
Meanwhile, arrange the pita on a lined sheet pan. Spread with the mascarpone. Top with ¾ of the onions, a generous drizzle of oil, the remaining spices and S&P. Bake, 4 to 5 min., until warmed through.
Make the salad
Meanwhile, halve the lettuce lengthwise; thinly slice. In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, carrots, vinaigrette, remaining onions and S&P.
Finish & serve
Transfer the pizzas to a cutting board and top with the beef and a spoonful of the salad. Cut into wedges. Divide the pizzas between your plates. Serve the remaining salad on the side. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking ground beef to a minimum internal temperature of 71°C.
