Cream cheese pizza topped with bacon and jalapenos for a tasty twist on poppers.
Ingredients:
  • 8 slices bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 0.75 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 (8 ounce) package reduced-fat cream cheese, cut into cubes
  • 0.25 cup sour cream
  • 1 prepared 16-inch pizza dough pastry
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, or more to taste
  • 0.5 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
  • 4 jalapeno peppers, sliced into thin rings
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon to drain on paper towels, keeping the flavorful drippings in the pan.
  • Cook onion in flavorful bacon drippings until soft, around 5 to 7 minutes. Introduce garlic and cook until it turns golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle in cumin, oregano, and black pepper to enhance the flavors. Mix in cream cheese and sour cream until the mixture is creamy and spreadable.
  • Evenly layer the creamy cheese mixture on the pizza dough, topping it with mozzarella and Cheddar cheeses. Next, arrange bacon and jalapeno pepper rings over the cheese. Finish by sprinkling parsley over the entire pizza.
  • Bake the dish in a hot oven until the crust is crispy and the cheese is golden and bubbly, for approximately 30 minutes.
