Here be photos of food, including meat.

We were talking with friends and got struck with the concept of a breakfast pizza. It took us a while to get the ingredients together and the spoons to make it, but we did and we did.

We used:

  • A store-bought bag of pizza dough.
  • The dregs of a jar of tomato pasta sauce.
  • Pre-shredded mozarrella and monterey jack cheese.
  • Breakfast sausage from a roll (cooked in advance).
  • Cubed, seasoned, pre-cooked breakfast potato.
  • One egg.
  • Salt, pepper, and oil.

A bag of pizza crust, a takeout container with sausage patties, a bag of breakfast potato, an egg, and a bowl sitting on a grimy stovetop.

We started by scrambling the egg.

Then, we shaped the crust, mostly in the air, and fitted it into the (already hot and oiled) cast-iron pan we used to cook the egg…

…and topped with sauce, cheese, and our toppings.

Then it just needed to go in the oven. We followed the directions on the bag of dough: 475°F, 10-12 minutes. (Ours needed 14 minutes.)

Finally, we transferred it to a cutting board, cut it into slices, and served it out to ourselves with maple syrup, for extra breakfastness.

It worked out well! The flavors were all great together and it was very satisfying both fresh and as leftovers.
