School Cafeteria Style Pizza

I had been thinking about making this and yesterday was the day I decided to do it.
Earlier in the day I browned some seasoned ground beef and uncased Italian sausage. Then as it got later toward dinnertime I made the dough for the crust and spread that in the pans. Yes, pans. I made two half sheet pans of this.
Added the homemade pizza sauce and the toppings.
This one is the Italian sausage and pepperoni before baking.
Here it is after it was baked.
This is the ground beef one. This is the one that we usually had that I remember most from elementary and high school
They came out pretty darn good and I'll probably make these more often.

School lunch pizzas were one of the best things they served back in the 1960s. Eventually the nutrition requirements for school lunch programs were changed by the USDA and those tasty little rectangular pizzas would not meet all of the requirements so they could no longer use them as an easy meal to prepare. It was a sad thing for pizza hungry kids who were no longer able to complain about having to eat something they really liked.
What is your pizza crust recipe?
Sauce?

Pizza day was my favorite meal day in the cafeteria. Seems like the crust was more of a crunchy biscuit type dough. The ground meat was chunky and good.

Square pizza pairs really well with canned corn. Or so thought every school I ever attended.

And a carton of milk

Yes, and what an odd combo that was.

My school was a fan of these psychotic bags of milk

Too soon, man. I still have PTSD of punching the straw through the top and bottom of the bag, resulting in a tray full of milk-soaked pizza.

That's downright strange. I am imagining a big mess daily.

USDA Pourable Pizza Crust
You can Google USDA school cafeteria recipes, but most are not linkable as they are in PDF format.

Thank you for posting this. Whenever I tell people that we were served bagged milk they think I'm full of shite
Before you punctured it you could also push in a corner, load it with a pea or corn then slam it and shoot someone.

Wait, really? I thought everyone was served that in the 90s. Our only cartons were for the white milk. Chocolate and strawberry (if you went to a school with strawberry) were in the bags.

And it was a contest to see who had the highest number on the inside of the carton peak, Lol......
Then there was also the way you opened the milk carton. Those who opened one side of the carton and those who opened the whole top of the carton.

I remember they had a big assembly teaching us how to properly puncture the milk bags before switching over. Hold the bag with your left hand, hold your thumb over the straw and poke into the air bubble. I don't know why I remember that so well.

I have never seen that scary looking milk bladder thing.

HEATHENS!!!!!!
We had cartons in elementary school and bags in middle school. Juice still came in cartons, I believe. I don't recall having issues successfully puncturing my milk bag, but I do remember reinflating them and sticking the straw through once they were empty.
ETA: OP's pizza looks legit- IWEI

Given the straw reseals the bag in that scenario, you are full of crap
My lunch every day in senior year was 4 bags of milk and four leftover biscuits from breakfast. Unless they made fresh wheat rolls. Then the biscuits were subbed.
Washed down with a DC..
