Ingredients:

1 Pillsbury refrigerated pizza crust
ketchup
mustard
1 onion
1 lb ground beef
1 block of cheddar cheese
1 jar hamburger pickles

Directions:

Lightly grease your Large Bar Pan using your Kitchen Spritzer (item #2733 $26.50)

Unroll your pizza crust on to your Large Bar Pan (item #1445 $37), you’ll find it’s a perfect fit! Place the crust in the oven for 10 minutes for a thicker and sturdy crust.
While your crust is pre-baking, using your Executive Skillet (#2865 $159.00) fry your ground beef off making sure to chop and mince well using your Mix n’ Chop (item #2583 $12.00) Drain and set aside.
Peel your onion and quarter it using the Forged Utility Knife (item #1052 $41.00). Place the quarters in your Manuel Food Processor (item #2593 $52.50) and give it a whirl, make sure your onion is finely chopped.
Remove your crust and set it on the Cooling Rack (item #1588 $29.50)

Here’s where the kids can to get involved. Take your ketchup and mustard and go ‘Picasso’ on your crust. I typically just zig zag the two condiments from top to bottom. Using your Large Spreader (item #1646 $10.50) blend and spread the ketchup and mustard all over your crust, it makes a lovely shade or orange!

Evenly crumble your beef over your crust.
Sprinkle your minced onion evenly over your beef.

Using your jar opener (item #2677 $12.25) crack open the hamburger pickles and layer them over the onion. (This also helps disguise the onions as most kids hate them, but honestly, they make this recipe!)
Using your Microplane Adjustable Grater (item #1129 $36.50) grate your cheddar cheese and then sprinkle evenly over the top of your pizza.
Return to oven and bake another 15 minutes or until your cheese is well melted.

Remove the finished product returning it to your cooling rack, then using your Pizza Cutter with Custom Crust Cutter (item#1303 $15.00) slice it up and serve it out! The family will be thrilled with how incredible the cheeseburger pizza tastes and how awesome you are for making it happen!
