   • Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Prepare the Baking Dish:

   • Coat a 13x9x2 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray, ensuring an even coating.

3. Cook the Meat Mixture:

   • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
   • Add diced sweet bell peppers, lean ground beef, and garlic salt.
   • Cook the mixture, stirring frequently to break up clumps of beef, until the peppers are softened and the beef is no longer pink, approximately 5 minutes.
   • Carefully drain off any excess fat from the skillet.

4. Prepare the Dough:

   • Remove the refrigerated pizza dough from the tubes.
   • Cut the dough crosswise into 1/2 inch slices, then cut each slice into 4 pieces.

5. Combine Ingredients:

   • In a large mixing bowl, toss together the pizza dough pieces and hot salsa until well coated.
   • Add the cooked meat mixture, 2 cups of shredded cheese, and sliced black olives. Mix everything thoroughly.

6. Assemble the Casserole:

   • Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

7. Bake:

   • Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese evenly over the top.
   • Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

8. Final Touch:

   • After 30 minutes, sprinkle the chopped scallions evenly over the top of the casserole.
   • Return the casserole to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the scallions to slightly wilt and enhance the flavors.

9. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Once done, remove the nacho casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
   • Serve warm, and savor the irresistible blend of flavors and textures in every bite!
