A Cheeseburger Pizza, with ketchup?

When I first came across the concept of a Cheeseburger Pizza, I didn't think that it would have ketchup for a sauce. I was thinking more along the lines of a pizza sauce with cheeseburger toppings. So, when I was looking at recipes the day I made this, to see what other people did to make a Cheeseburger Pizza, I was surprised to see it included ketchup!

Now, ketchup and me, we are not the best of buds. I like it on my burgers and to dip my fries into, but when it comes to anything else, I basically leave it alone. The recipe I based this pizza on is no longer on the internet and inaccessible. It was the one and only recipe that I saw that incorporated ketchup, mustard, tomato paste, and sugar. I see several around that have ketchup and mayonnaise, but this sauce seems to be one of its own.

Ways to top your cheeseburger pizza

When it comes right down to it, you can top your pizza any way you want to. Don't want ketchup? Use pizza sauce. The pizza police will not come after you!
