Brussels Sprouts and Bacon Homemade Pizza is amazing.It has whatever it is that keeps brussels sprouts lovers, well brussels sprouts lovers. As far as bacon, I need to say nothing, except feel free to change this up with pancetta.
I’m not a fan of red tomato sauce on pizza. I know that sounds crazy, and I may make an exception to this for a pepperoni pizza if I’m in the mood for that. Most of the time I like fresh vegetable or fruit combinations and not a ton of cheese.
You can put as much cheese as you like, I like to just make sure most of the brussels sprouts are covered. Add a few on top just to get that crispy brussels sprouts thing going.
I might add this as an option: Before you put the brussels sprouts on, add a layer of fig jam or apple jelly for a little surprise sweetness. Be bold, you might even go with something cherry or berry.
This is the pizza everyone loves and fights over the last piece!

This combination of Brussels Sprouts and Bacon with Mozzarella on pizza is awesome.
Oh yummy!! Pizza is always a temptation. I could eat a gourmet meal and if there’s a pizza in front of me it’s like I never ate at all 🙁 I’ll have to give your version a try. We’ve been kind of keeping to the same recipe. We need to shake things up a bit. Don’t want to become old and boring!! Have a wonderful weekend.
