Prepare the Bacon
In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet, drain on paper towels, and chop into small pieces.

Add the Roasted Peppers
Stir in the roasted peppers and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Combine Ingredients
Add the crispy bacon and half of the buffalo mozzarella to the sauce. Stir well to combine.
Serve
Transfer the mixture to a serving dish. Top with the remaining mozzarella, grated parmesan, fresh parsley, and drizzle with parsley lemon oil (combine parsley, olive oil, and lemon juice).
