Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza

Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza is a real treat for family pizza night. Made with the best burger toppings for a budget friendly meal.

Grilled pizza is one of our favorite dinners and it’s so much cheaper to make homemade pizza than ordering takeout. The last time we ordered 3 pizzas it was $60!

So you can save a ton of cash by making your own and it’s really easy. We love to cook them on the grill but they are also easy to make in the oven. Add a green salad or homemade mac and cheese for a family favorite dinner.
