Cook 2 pounds of hamburger meat in a skillet until no longer pink, seasoning with seasoned salt, garlic powder, and granulated onion.

Add 2 cups of pizza sauce and 2 cups of shredded mozzarella to the cooked hamburger meat and stir together.

In a crock-pot, add half of the meat mixture to the bottom and pat it down.

Layer 1 cup of pizza blend cheese on top of the meat mixture.

Add pepperoni as a layer on top of the cheese.

Chop up olives from a jar and add half of them on top of the pepperoni layer.

Repeat the layering process with the remaining meat mixture, 1 cup of pizza blend cheese, pepperoni, and the remaining olives.

Cover the crock-pot and cook on low for 4 hours or on high for 2 hours.
