Pizza Eggs

This week marks the start of school in many places. Unfortunately, this also means the beginning of new jam-packed schedules for a lot of families. It is totally normal to have mornings when you are rushing the kids out the door with a pop tart in hand. Sometimes the best-laid plans can not change that.

If you just can’t seem to muster up the enthusiasm to channel Wonder Woman on school mornings, give these delicious Pizza Eggs a try on the weekend.  I found the recipe in one of my old Keto cookbooks, Craveable Keto by Kyndra D. Holley.  Yes, I hate to admit failure here, but I have been keto again for 8 days now.  The pandemic brought back old habits and they have gotten worse.  However, these eggs are perfect anytime and anyone, keto or not.  They are so very easy to make too! 

Depending on how you like your eggs, you will finish them one of two ways. To cook the eggs well, cook on the stove-top the entire time. If you want your eggs runny, heat your broiler and pop the eggs under the broiler to finish.

Pizza Eggs

Course Breakfast

Equipment

• Small copper frying pan.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons pizza sauce
• 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
• 5 pepperoni sliced cut in half
• 2 tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
• pinch Italian seasoning

Instructions

• Heat the butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat. When the butter is melted and the skillet is hot, add the cracked eggs to the pan.
• Once the whites just barely start to set and turn white, reduce the heat to low, spoon the pizza sauce over the eggs and sprinkle with the feta cheese.
• Continue cooking, and when the whites are almost completely set, add the pepperoni, mozzarella, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning on top.
• At this point if you like your eggs cooked well you can place a lid on the pan, but you do not have to, and continue cooking on the stove top. IF you prefer runny eggs, pop the pan under the broiler and watch closely.
• The eggs are ready when the whites are completely set, the pepperoni is cooked, and the cheese is melted.
