01 / WHAT YOU NEED

Ingredients

1 CAULIPOWER® Three Cheese Pizza 4 ounces Brussels sprouts, thinly sliced 3 teaspoons olive oil, divided salt and ground black pepper to taste ½ small red onion, thinly sliced 2 slices crisp-cooked bacon, crumbled 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste (Optional)

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

Step 1

Start by heating your oven to 425°F (220°C). Keep the pizza frozen—no need to thaw it before baking—then place it on a baking sheet or pizza pan. In a medium bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with about 2 teaspoons of olive oil, and season them with salt and pepper to taste. Spread the sprouts evenly over the pizza. Next, toss the red onion slices with the remaining teaspoon of olive oil, then layer them on top of the Brussels sprouts. Sprinkle the cooked bacon over the onions, followed by a generous handful of grated Parmesan cheese and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes for a little kick. Pop the pizza into the oven and bake for about 13 to 15 minutes, until everything is hot and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
