Preparing the Pizza
- Preheat the oven to 425℉.

- Evenly distribute the canadian bacon and cooked bacon pieces over the cheese.
- Add the remainder of the mozzarella cheese onto the top of the meat.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is browned and the cheese is hot and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes before adding the fresh toppings.
- Fill a small plastic bag with 2 tbsp of mayonnaise and cut the tip of the bag to pipe the mayonnaise onto the pizza.
- Sprinkle the lettuce over the entire pizza.
- Top with freshly diced tomatoes.
