Pizza Eggs

Do you have just a slice or two of leftover pizza? Delicious, fluffy scrambled eggs with leftover pizza is easy to make and stretches your budget!

I don't know about you, but when we order pizza delivery, we always have leftovers. My husband loves having the leftovers, but sometimes there isn't enough for a full meal.

When we heard about Pizza Eggs, I knew we had to try them. Adding chopped pizza to scrambled eggs was a perfect way to get another full meal from a little leftover pizza.

We heard about this dish from "The Trackers", "Tim and Jenn". Their channel exploring all of the major theme parks, local restaurants, and family life as new parents is one of our favorites on YouTube. When my husband and I saw Jenn make this dish, I knew I had to make my own version. Leftover pizza for breakfast? Yes! The pizza may not be completely transformed like on Food Network's, "Chopped", but I promise this is a very tasty dish.

So, let's cook!

Ingredient Notes

Pizza Eggs has only 5 ingredients:

• Eggs - This recipe is balanced to use large eggs.
• Heavy Cream - You will need a small amount of heavy cream to make the eggs fluffy.
• Salt - Just use the plain salt in the round blue box.
• Pepperoni Pizza - We are talking leftover pizza here!
• Salted Butter - Just a bit of butter keeps the eggs from sticking and adds richness to the eggs.

It is just like making scrambled eggs with chopped pizza added toward the end of the cooking time!

How to Make Pizza Eggs

In a small glass bowl, beat the eggs, heavy cream, and salt with a fork.

Chop the pizza and gently warm it in a microwave oven.

Melt the butter in a small frying pan over medium-low heat and gently cook the egg mixture. As the egg sets, gently move the cooked eggs into the center of the pan with a heat-proof spatula.

Add the chopped and warmed pizza, and continue to gently move the cooked eggs into the center of the pan. Flip the egg mixture until it is cooked to your liking.

If you like a softer creamier scrambled egg, reduce the heat to low and carefully watch that the eggs retain some glossiness. Some people like firmly cooked but fluffy eggs, and if that is your preference, simply flip the egg mixture in the pan and let it continue to cook until the eggs have risen and are dry and firm.

Whatever way you like your scrambled eggs, do not over-stir! Stirring too much will break the egg mixture and not complement the larger chunks of pizza.

As soon as the eggs are at your preferred texture, immediately, plate, serve and enjoy!
