Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza



I love bacon cheeseburger pizza. I didn't actually intend to make it but DH had accidentally told his parents that I was making this kind instead of the BLT pizza that I was really making. The dough recipe made two crusts, so instead of freezing it, I decided to give in and make the kind of pizza they were expecting. I didn't have a recipe, and instead played it by ear on what I could remember of when I worked at a pizza place in high school. It turned out fabulous.

Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza
Pizza crust-make your own or buy it
sauce-recipe below
6 slices bacon, browned and crumbled
1/2 lb. hamburger, browned and drained
1/2 tomato, diced
1/2 onion, diced
cheese, I used cheddar and mozzarella
pickles, optional

sauce:
ketchup
mustard
mayo
Worcestershire

mix the above ingredients together to taste

Spread crust out on pizza sheet or pizza stone. Spread a layer of sauce on the crust. Top with beef, onion, tomato, bacon, and cheese. I mostly did all the measuring by eye and just put how much I thought looked good.
Bake at 425 until cheese is golden brown roughly 17-20 minutes. Top with a pickle slice before serving.

BLT Pizza



I got this recipe from a mom on the mom's board I frequent. The recipe is easy and very tasty! I've made this several times already. This particular slice was from a Sunday when I had the in-laws over for pizza.

pizza crust (you can buy or make your own. Recipe I used is below.)
10 slices bacon, fried, drained, and crumbled
tomatoes, diced
onion ( I added)
cheese, I used cheddar and mozzarella
lettuce, about 2 cups
1 Tbsp. mayo
1 Tbsp miracle whip
salt
pepper

Spread pizza crust out on pizza pan or pizza stone. Brush with olive oil. Bake at 425 for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown. Top baked crust with cheese, crumbled bacon, onions, and tomatoes. Bake until cheese is golden brown.
Meanwhile, mix the lettuce, mayo, miracle whip, salt and pepper to taste. Slice pizza and top with lettuce.

Pizza Crust - The Bread Machine Bible
1 cup plus 2 Tbsp. water
2 Tbsp. olive oil
3 1/4 c. white bread flour
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. instant dry yeast

Pour the water into the bread pan, the add the oil. Sprinkle the flour over, covering the liquid completely. Place the salt and sugar in separate corners of the pan. Make a small indent in the middle of the flour and add the yeast. Close the lid, set the machine to 'basic dough' or 'pizza dough' and press start.
