Bacon Lettuce Tomato Pizza

If you’ve never had pizza with mayonnaise before, don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. Unlike other pizzas where you use an alfredo sauce or red tomato sauce as a base we are making this BLT pizza with mayo to get a true taste of that sandwich we crave. The flavors at the end are a success though because it truly does taste like a BLT thanks to that mayo based sauce, the crispy bacon, roasted tomatoes, and fresh arugula on every slice.

FAQs

Can I use miracle whip?

If you enjoy miracle whip instead of may you can try that on your pizza to see how it tastes. you may find that you prefer it even more than regular mayonnaise. I think miracle whip is a bit too sweet and flavored for my tastebuds but if its what you already enjoy, you can’t really go wrong.

Where can I find pizza dough?

You can either make your own pizza dough following a recipe online or you can simply buy it premade from your grocery store. A lot of grocery stores have refrigerated balls of pre-made pizza dough so that all you have to do is take it home and roll it out. Pretty simple and easy if you ask me.

Can I use regular lettuce?

If you don’t like arugula you can stick with regular lettuce like shredded iceberg lettuce. Arugula has a strong peppery flavor and not everyone enjoys it but plain lettuce should be great and still provide that cold fresh taste on top of your pizza slice.
