Breakfast Pizza

What better way to start your day than with a pizza! Breakfast pizzas are fun way to add a little variety to your morning meal and a great way to use some leftover vegetables. It's pretty easy to make and can be quite healthy too. To save even more time, you can use a store-bought precooked pizza shell and skip making the dough yourself.
  • Pizza dough
  • See quick pizza dough recipe
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup of precooked breakfast sausage links cut into pieces
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup green peppers, dieced
  • 1/2 cup onions, diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheese - Monterey Jack, mozzarella, cheddar or a blend of any cheese you like
  1. Preheat your oven to 450 F.

  2. Chop your onions and green peppers and slice the sausages.

  3. Press the pizza dough into a 12 inch pan and push the dough up around the edge to make a rim. Bake for 5 minutes.

  4. While the crust is baking, saute your vegetables in a skillet over medium heat with the olive oil, until they are tender and the onions are translucent. Beat the eggs in a bowl and add to the vegetables. Stir in the sausage slices and cook the eggs just until they set but are still soft and very moist.

  5. Pour your egg mixture over the pizza crust and sprinkle the cheese on top. Bake for 10 minutes until the cheese is lightly brown. Enjoy!
If you have not tried a breakfast pizza before, you will want to give this one a try. It is very versatile so don't be afraid to experiment with whatever ingredients you prefer.
