I have to wonder sometimes if my Littles are really mine. But then I rememeber being pregnant for the past 3 years, and realize, they are very much in fact MINE.
But if they REALLY are mine, then I’m truly stumped why breakfast goes in and out of favor with them. Some days waffles and pancakes are ALL they want to eat (ALL DAY!), other days they just want a protein shake with Dada. So I’m always trying to think up new and fun things for them. Plus, I really like to use every last everything in the fridge, I’m a sucker for not having anything leftover, so even the food needs to multi task in our house.
This past week we had a little sudo-Greek dinner ~ Trader Joe’s Flatbread, Hummus and Taziki, garden fresh tomatoes, cucumbers and Oven Baked Tri-Tip (you see this dish often on this site as it is so easy and flavorful, and I can use the leftovers for so many other dishes). But my left over in this case was the flatbread. I woke up Saturday morning thinking it would make a PERFECT pizza crust!! I’m not a huge fan of Boboli for pizza crust (but LOVE it for cinnamon toast, just sayin…) and most often just make our own or use Bridgeford frozen dough, but sometimes it’s nice to know you can make a homemade personal pizza in a pinch.
Enter Trader Joe’s Flatbread. Any flatbread would work, I just happen to love how soft and spongy their’s is…
In this case we were making breakfast pizza…
- I scrambled the eggs (1 for each pizza + another for good measure)
- While eggs were scrambling, I threw Costco’s Jimmy Dean frozen Turkey sausage links in the microwave for a minute (and sliced them up after).
- Put the flatbread in the toaster to lightly toast (basically to warm it a bit as it had been in the fridge).
- Grated a little mozerrella…maybe 3/4 cup??
- When the eggs were cooked, I divide them on top of each lightly toasted flatbread using the back of the spoon to flatten a little.
- Scattered the sausage among all the pizzas and topped with the shredded mozzerella.
- Threw it under the broiler for a minute (kept an eye on it).
- Sliced it up and served!
Now I think these breakfast pizzas could work with a number of different fancier morning combinations, but I was using what I had on hand and trying to mimic what I knew my kids really liked (sausage pizza…) But you can use bacon, sauteed mushrooms, leeks, ham, tomatoes….sooo many possibilities…
My guy had his with salsa and sliced Jalapeno.
(Sorry about the half eaten photos!! Forgot to take pictures until we had all taken a bite and were loving the new creation!)
Start to finish, I think the whole thing took me 10-12 minutes (Not 15. Not 9….just to be clear….Ha!) And we all gobbled up our plates!
Enjoy!
