As a young student, I didn’t know much about good nutrition. My mother had taught me how to make quick, easy meals to eat that wouldn’t break the bank, but most of the food I ate in those days came from takeouts, and my favorite was pizza.
Pizza is an age-old Italian dish and, despite being high in calories, can also be quite healthy, especially if you go heavy on the vegetables and lean protein toppings, and easy on the cheese. Thin and crispy bases are generally lower in calories too.
Some days, when I woke up late before class, I’d end up having leftover pizza for breakfast. Not the best start to the day I know but, for a poor student, anything was better than nothing!
This recipe, which is sort of a breakfast pizza, makes me think back to my old student days, but this version is much healthier.
If you have never had pizza for breakfast, I’ll hope you’ll try this recipe, and think of me when you eat it!
