Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over the pre-baked crust. Add a layer of mozzarella cheese, then the cooked meat mixture. Add another layer of sauce and cheese. Top with pepperoni slices and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
