Breakfast pizza…the perfect combination of breakfast and pizza. Whether you’re looking for breakfast ideas or pizza recipes or quick dinner ideas, this recipe fits the bill.
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m not much of a morning person – especially during the week. Breakfasts are usually pretty simple in our house. We usually have baked oatmeal or frozen whole wheat pancakes. Quick. Simple. Easy. That’s how I like my mornings.
The weekends are a different story. I like to fuss over breakfast on Sundays. We love savory Cowboy Breakfast Sandwiches or this sweet French Toast Bake. it’s a great way to ease into the last day of the weekend.
I also like to make BFD…breakfast for dinner. I try to work it into our weekly meal plan every couple of weeks. I came across this recipe for Breakfast Pizza on Lynn’s Kitchen Adventures. I loved the combination of the salsa, bacon and eggs nestled in a pillowy soft pizza dough. It just seemed so right.
This recipe didn’t disappoint! My guys loved it!

This recipe is very adaptable too. I used bacon, but you could use ham or sausage. You could also switch up the cheese or add chopped green onions or peppers or mushrooms. Really anything you would put in an omelet. Go crazy!
I usually pick up pizza dough from our local pizza joint. It’s fast and easy. You could use homemade dough or even store-bought. We like our pizza crust thick but if you like a thinner crust then just roll it out a little more. See what I mean? Adaptable. This Breakfast Pizza is definitely a keeper! It’s one of my new favorite breakfast ideas.

This sounds amazing and perfect for a brunch 🙂
Wow, this is making me really hungry! It’s like the perfect combo for me. I occasionally will eat (cold) pizza for breakfast (I know I’m weird), and I will very frequently eat breakfast foods for dinner. 🙂
There is nothing weird about cold pizza for breakfast! My son loves it! 🙂 And, we too, love breakfast for dinner! 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
