Yesterday was totally a fall day. Well, minus the fact that Big Guy was wearing shorts and a t-shirt and it was 80 degrees. BUT it was totally fall because we went to the pumpkin patch!

We didn’t carve them yesterday…we’ll do that closer to Halloween.
It’s Fall, y’all!
Now onto brussels and bacon. Not an unlikely pairing. Unless you put it on a pizza.
killer duo
But boy was it a perfect pizza.
First I cooked up some chopped bacon. Once the bacon was cooked through – I removed it from the pan and cooked 6 brussels that had been sliced and tossed with a tablespoon or so of balsamic and 2 cloves of minced garlic.
Once that was cooked, I topped the crusts (gluten-free) with the brussels, sharp cheddar cheese, a sprinkling of feta and the bacon. I also added a dash of red pepper flakes. Cooked until the crust was browning and the cheese was melted to perfection
perfect pizza
On the side, the remaining brussels that I simply halved and sauteed while the pizza was baking.
This was one fantastic pizza combination. Seriously! We’ve made a lot of delicious pizzas, but this was one of the best.
