Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza
  1. In a skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef and chopped onion. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned and no longer pink, and the onion is translucent. Drain excess fat and set aside.
  2. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Take a prebaked pizza crust and place it on an ungreased pizza pan.
  3. Spread a generous layer of pizza sauce evenly over the prepared crust. Next, layer the beef mixture over the sauce, followed by crumbled bacon and dill pickle slices.
  4. Top your pizza with a mixture of shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese. Dust Italian seasoning over the top.
  5. Carefully place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
