Panuozzo (Italian: [panu-oˈdzːzo]; Neapolitan: o' panuozzo; pl.: panuozzi; panuozzo = pane + ozzo) is an Italian sandwich of pizza bread stuffed with fillings of meat and vegetables. It was invented in 1983 by the pizzaiolo ('pizza maker') Giuseppe Mascolo, from the comune (municipality) of Gragnano, near Naples, Italy, and was first adopted in the region of the Monti Lattari (Pimonte, Agerola, and Sant'Antonio Abate). Various fillings can be used, such as mozzarella or other dairy products, tomatoes, several vegetables (e.g., eggplant and zucchini), Italian sausages and sliced meats, friggitelli, and so on.

Panuozzo is officially recognised as a prodotto agroalimentare tradizionale (PAT).
