RECIPE: breakfast pizza

With my hubby being tired of the usual for supper he thought this would be a good idea. I have never seen breakfast pizza frozen but it would be a good alternative for supper. With both working I need quick, fast meals.

So How do you make your breakfast pizza and have you ever frozen them?

    I've never heard of a breakfast pizza. I've heard of frittatas. I'm sorry no one has helped you!

    I think a breakfast pizza would be pretty time consuming. I make breakfast tacos, quesadillas, enchiladas etc. Since the tortillas are already made it doesn't take much time to scramble some eggs and throw some sausage or bacon, cheese, tomato, salsa, etc on top.

    He had a slice at one of the 'sell everything gas stations'. I hadn't heard of it either so I googled it. I made my own pizza crust. Put it in a lg cookie sheet then just added eggs mixed w/milk, onion, a little taco sauce , cooked sausage. pour it all on top of the crust topped w/cheddar and pizza cheese and baked. It was pretty good. I'm not sure about freezing it but it did keep well in the frig. You could add peppers, mushrooms ect.

    My husband isn't suppose to have alot of eggs so I used two whole eggs mixed with egg substitute . I am thinking it might help making it a little healthier. You could use a pre-baked crust.

    On the Cooking Forum today, Jessy posted about reading a thread on pizza with egg -- breakfast pizza. She linked to this site. Perhaps this thread will give you some ideas.

    Here's a couple I have, but haven't tried freezing either.

    Breakfast Pizza

    1 pound ground pork sausage
    1 package Crescent Rolls
    1 cup frozen hash browns, thawed
    1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    ¼ cup milk
    5 eggs
    2 tablespoon grated Parmesan
    ½ teaspoon salt

    Cook sausage until done and drain. Separate Crescent rolls and put on round pizza pan, points to center. Press to form crust. Sprinkle with potatoes, sausage and cheese. Mix eggs, milk, salt and pepper and pour over all. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake at 375 for 25 to 30 minutes.

    Crescent Breakfast Pizza

    4 slices bacon
    4 tablespoons purchased pesto
    1 cup fresh sliced mushrooms
    1 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
    1 can of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
    2 large Plum tomatoes cut in 1/8Âs
    1 Â 3 ounce package of soft cream cheese
    3 green onions, sliced

    Heat oven to 375. Spray large cookie sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In medium skillet cook bacon until crisp, drain. Crumble bacon; set aside. Reserve 1 tablespoon of bacon drippings, add mushrooms; cooking until tender. Separate dough into 4 rectangles. Press perforations to seal. Cut rectangles in half to form 8 squares. Place dough squares ½ inch apart on cookie sheet.

    Spread each dough square with 2 teaspoons cream cheese and ½ tablespoon of pesto. Top with mushrooms and half the mozzarella. Arrange tomato slices on cheese. Sprinkle with onions, crumbled bacon and remaining half of cheese. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes or until crust is golden brown.

    I used to work for a place that served the best breakfast pizza in their cafeteria.

    The crust was baking powder biscuit dough. I am not sure how it was prepared but the biscuit base was on the bottom of the cake pan, then sauce, topped with cooked meats - Italian sausage and crisp bacon, so I imagine they were pre-cooked. There were onions and green peppers, mushrooms and scrambled eggs. All seem to have been prepared ahead. Finally it was topped with cheese and popped into the oven.

    I have tried to dissect the recipe. I believe the biscuit dough was put into an oiled cake pan and the pre-cooked toppings added. It looked to me like the pizza was served when the biscuit base was finished baking. See back of a Bisquick box for times and temps. Cut in big squares - delish !!

    I amke a breakfast pizza that my guys go wild over.

    Start with Pillsbury Grands biscuits and flatten out to about 7 inches in diamaeter.

    Top with any (or all) of the following:

    sauteed onions
    sauteed peppers
    browned sausage
    crispy bacon
    sauteed mushrooms

    Make a little hollow place in the middle of the topped pizza, and break an egg into the hollow. Top with shredded cheese and bake in a 350 oven for about 15 - 20 min until the egg is cooked to your preference.
