Ingredients

  • 1 pound hamburger
  • 2 packages refrigerated pizza dough
  • 2 cups cheese
  • 1 package bacon bits
  • Onion Powder
  • Pickles
  • ¼ cup olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven as indicated on your pizza dough packaging.  
  2. In a pan, brown the hamburger.  Season with salt and pepper. Drain the excess grease.  Allow to cool for a few minutes. You will want to keep it warm but not hot.

  4. Spread half of the hamburger meat over the pizza.
  5. Top with 1 cup cheese.
  6. Add bacon bits on top of the cheese.  
  7. Sprinkle with onion powder.  (Or diced onion!)
  8. Starting from one end, roll the dough up with all of the meat and cheese inside.  Pinch closed the sides.
  9. Repeat with the other package of dough.
  10. Brush the top of the dough with a bit of olive oil to help it crisp to a nice brown.
  11. Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  12. Allow to cool.  Cut into slices.  
  13. Serve with ketchup and mustard for dipping.
