Bacon, Jalapeno and Tomato Pizza

If you like spicy foods as much as I do, I’ve got an amazing spicy pizza to share with you today. This is a bacon, jalapeno and cheddar cheese pizza. It has all the things we love about bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers, except in pizza form.

This would be a great pizza to make on a game night for a party, and make a second less spicy pizza for the kids, maybe just bacon and tomato.

For this pizza, I also used Pillsbury’s Artisan pizza crust. It’s a great shortcut ingredient. This crust bakes up perfectly, and is loaded with whole grains, so pizza night isn’t completely unhealthy.

If you love the sound of this pizza, but want something a little less spicy, just replace the jalapenos with those small sweet snacking peppers. Those peppers have almost zero heat, but are still full of flavor and would be perfect on this pizza.

To make a mild version of this pizza, replace the jalapeno peppers with bell or sweet snacking peppers.
