BLT (Bacon, Lettuce & Tomato) Pizza

From the California Pizza Kitchen Cookbook, with some minor amendments. When the crisp rocket lettuce and tzatziki dip is added to the warm pizza, it's a taste sensation. To make your own tzatziki use Tzatziki (Yoghurt, Cucumber, Garlic and Mint Dip). Show more

Directions

  1. Brush olive oil over the pizza base.
  2. Spread 3/4 of the mozzarella over the oiled surface.

  6. Transfer to the preheated Pizza Maker machine (or to a very hot oven) and cook until the crust is crisp and golden and the cheese at the centre is bubbling (8 to 10 minutes).
