So here's a weird thing about me. I really love dill pickles. So when I heard about pickle pizza I was excited. Unfortunately, where I live there aren't any real close pizza places that serve pickle pizza. I did however find a frozen version at Target. I had to try it! Although it had chips on it. And the idea of a frozen pizza with chips on it didn't make sense to me. Wouldn't they not be crispy? Hmm. But it had pickles. So I baked it up and it was not good at all. Gross even. I didn't even eat more than one piece.

There had to be another option. I could drive far away and try one or I could just try and make my own. I went for option 2 and decided to make my own. I ran to my local grocery store and bought a 2 pack of pizza crusts, some roasted garlic parmesan sauce, some shredded mozzarella, some bacon bits and some dill pickles. Total cost was $19.30. So right around the cost of getting a prepaid pizza before tip or delivery charge.
Then the easy part came. Just laid out the pizza crusts, spread on the garlic parmesan sauce with a spoon, sprinkled on cheese, added pickles and then the bacon bits. Took 5 minutes at the most. I preheated the oven at 425 degrees and once it was ready, I threw the pizza in and let it bake for 12 minutes.

The pizza came out after 12 minutes with the cheese perfectly melted and the crust was done perfectly. No the big test... the taste. Would it compare to the frozen variety and be gross or would it be something I wanted to eat..... I cut it up, plated it up and took a bite. IT WAS GOOD! 10 minutes later and 4 pieces in my belly I give the pizza my total recommendation.
So if you like pickles and bacon, you got to definitely try this pizza!
