My version of California Pizza Kitchen's BLT pizza

We took the kids to CPK awhile back and had their BLT pizza. It was good! I studied it and decided to give it a try.

Your favorite recipe of pizza crust
1-2 T. olive oil
1-2 cloves of garlic, minced or pressed
2-3 tomatoes, sliced thin (I also let them sit on a paper towel for a while so they would get the pizza all soggy)
4-5 strips of precooked bacon, crumbled
shredded mozzarella cheese, how much you like on pizza.
Parmesan cheese (optional)
1 head of chiffonade (thinly sliced) cut romaine lettuce
Favorite ranch dressing (I used and a Caesar ranch dressing, it was great)

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Roll out pizza dough, brush on olive oil and evenly sprinkle garlic. Put on your cheeses. Put on tomatoes and bacon. Bake for 12-15 minutes.

While pizza is cooking toss lettuce with dressing. When the pizza is baked let it cool for a few minutes. Put the lettuce on top and enjoy! This isn't a pizza that you can save for leftovers. The lettuce wilts a little bit after awhile.
