This has become one of my families favorite pizzas. We have made it a tradition to have pizza in our house every Friday night. With that said, having the same pizza every week can get pretty old. Hence I found and started adding the cheeseburger pizza into our Friday rotation.

- Make sure to add enough sauce. There is nothing worse than a dry pizza.
