Description
A delicious and nutritious high-protein breakfast pizza that is easy to make and perfect for starting your day right.
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup egg whites (about 4 large egg whites)
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup diced onions
- 1/4 cup cooked and crumbled turkey sausage or bacon (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 cup additional shredded mozzarella cheese for topping
- Fresh parsley or basil for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
- Add the Greek yogurt to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
- Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and press it out into a round or rectangular shape, about 1/2 inch thick.
- In another bowl, whisk together the egg whites, bell peppers, onions, turkey sausage or bacon (if using), black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the dough, spreading it out to cover the surface.
- Sprinkle the additional shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg is set and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil if desired, then slice and serve.
Notes
- For a vegetarian option, omit the turkey sausage or bacon and add more vegetables like spinach or mushrooms.
- Try different cheese varieties such as cheddar or feta for a unique flavor twist.
