Cheeseburger Pizza. New Music From The Harmaleighs.

A lot of the recipes I make for Cheeseburger Pizza are a fusion of an Italian pie and a loaded burger like this Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza. Today’s version replaces the tomato sauce with Thousand Island dressing. The dressing gives the pizza a lighter flavor and is so good with the lettuce and pickle topping.

Cheeseburger Pizza

Ingredients:

1 pound ground beef
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 prebaked 12-inch pizza crust
1/2 cup Thousand Island salad dressing
1 small onion, chopped
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups shredded lettuce
1/2 cup sliced dill pickles

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 450°F.

2. In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat 6-8 minutes or until no longer pink, breaking into crumbles; drain. Sprinkle beef with salt.

3. Place crust on an ungreased pizza pan or baking sheet; spread with salad dressing. Top with beef, onion and cheese.

4. Bake 6-8 minutes or until cheese is melted. Top with lettuce and pickles just before serving.

Makes 8 slices

I was going to play this song whether I liked it or not.

The reason?

The Harmaleighs might be the first band I’ve seen who pair their songs with recipes.

I know someone who loves that idea. :)

Turns out ‘I Keep Ticking On’ is quite the thigh slapping, gem of a tune. Paired with a Mimosa, I think these gals have something really good going on here.
