Ingredients

  • 14 slices thick-cut bacon

  • 4oz (¼lb) ground beef

  • ¼ tsp fine sea salt

  • ¼ tsp ground black pepper

  • ⅔ cup tomato sauce

  • 2 tbsp Swerve confectioners’- style sweetener

  • 2 tbsp prepared yellow mustard

  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • ½ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

  • ¼ cup chopped onions

  • FOR THE GARNISH
  • ¼ large dill pickle, sliced into ¼- inch-thick rounds

  • ¼ cup roughly chopped or torn lettuce

  • 1 tomato, roughly chopped

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F.
  • Weave the bacon strips together on a rimmed baking sheet by overlapping each strip over and under the others to form a grid. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the bacon “crust” is crisp.
  • In the meantime, preheat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. In a skillet, combine the ground beef, salt, and pepper, and cook, stirring frequently, until the meat is browned and crumbly, about 5 minutes. Set aside the skillet.
  • Combine the tomato sauce, sweetener, and mustard in a mixing bowl; spread this mixture over the bacon crust. Sprinkle the cheeses on top of the tomato sauce mixture, followed by the beef and onions.
  • Bake the pizza for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Remove from the oven and serve with pickle slices, chopped lettuce, and chopped tomato as garnish.
  • This pizza is best served fresh, but any leftovers can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat for 4 minutes on a rimmed baking sheet in a preheated 200°C/400°F oven.
