When you can’t decide between a burger and pizza, this Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza with Dill Pickle Aioli is the best of both worlds!
We all have a favorite dish that we crave on the regular. One that you can taste with a simple thought, and you can’t stop thinking about it until you actually taste it. This Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza with Dill Pickle Aioli is that dish for me.
I know you’re probably thinking that it’s too basic to be my favorite. That I would crave something more along the lines of Coq Au Vin or a fancy truffle pasta, but no. You know you’ve stumbled upon a great recipe when you can’t stop going on and on about how good it is.
I mean, it’s probably not in very good taste to compliment my own recipe, but it’s seriously THAT good. I can’t wait to make it again. It’s the perfect Friday night, eat on the couch while binge-watching Netflix kinda dish.
We just finished Stranger Things and I was beyond obsessed. The kids are so darn good, I just want to adopt them all.
If you have any recommendations for a Netflix series to watch, let me know! I’m always on the hunt for something new to watch. And if you haven’t watched Stranger Things, do it. And make this pizza. Okay, I’ll stop being bossy now.
