These Bacon Cheeseburger Roll-Ups were a hit with the kids, and it was a really easy recipe. I used ground beef left over from the Lettuce Cups we had recently. Added to that, I had a little Velveeta on hand and plenty of Pillsbury dough products to make this. We ate half and froze the rest for a leftover lunch one day. This is a great burger recipe that the kids can help you make. Thanks Kraft for this ground beef recipe!

Be creative when you approach a recipe. You might not have everything you need according to what is called for, but you might have exactly what you need to come up with something that suits your family. I made a few modifications in this recipe.
- I substituted the pizza crust dough, which I didn’t have, for crescent rolls.
- I skipped the bacon. If you have some, great–but if you don’t have any on hand, don’t let that stop you. These were still delicious!
Healthy alternatives:
- Stir in some pureed veggies like butternut squash, with the ground beef mixture.
- Use a real Swiss or cheddar cheese instead of Velveeta.
- Opt for ground turkey instead of ground beef.
- 1pound lean ground beef
- 4 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, chopped
- 1 small onion, chopped
- ½ pound (8 oz.) VELVEETA Pasteurized Prepared Cheese Product, cut into ½-inch cubes
- 1 package (13.8 oz.) refrigerated pizza crust
- Heat oven to 400°F.
- Brown ground beef with bacon and onions in large skillet on medium-high heat; drain. Return meat mixture to skillet.
- Add VELVEETA; cook until melted, stirring frequently. Cool 10 minutes.
- Unroll pizza dough onto baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Press into 15×8-inch rectangle; top with meat mixture.
- Roll up, starting at one of the long sides. Rearrange if necessary so roll is seam-side down.
- Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
