I love bacon cheeseburgers, or any variation, so I was super excited to find this Bacon Cheeseburger Roll-Up Recipe. My recipe is a little different than the original in that I used homemade pizza dough as well as a couple other additions, I made.

1 lb. lean ground beef
4 pieces of chopped bacon
1 small chopped onion
1/2 lb. (8 oz.) Velveeta Cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 pkg. (14 oz.) refrigerated pizza crust (I used my homemade dough)
