Sausage Tomato Breakfast Pizza! A simple one-pan dish made with fresh vegetables and herbs with the flavors of pizza. A Paleo, gluten free and low calorie breakfast that's healthy, nourishing and delicious! Gluten Free + Low Calorie + Paleo
Good thing I LOVE this breakfast pizza because I had to shoot it four times before I got the pictures just right. Eggs are a glorious, nutritious and delicious thing but really are impossible to shoot. I'm not sure I will ever discover the secret recipe to shooting eggs.
I'm a perfectionist (something I really hate about myself) so that may or may not have everything to do with my OCD tendencies.
But really, I'm not complaining because this Sausage Tomato Breakfast Pizza is amazingly good, and it gave me an excuse to eat it over and over and over and over again. 🙂
What I am gonna complain about though, are the technical problems I've been having lately. Ugh...my website has been the bane of my existence. It has to happen when I'm actively drowning in the most schoolwork I've ever had in one month too. Oh yeah, and I have major surgery in a few weeks. Seriously?
I'm looking for a developer who can troubleshoot it because I've maxed out my understanding of how websites work at this point. Don't you just wish things would work sometimes?
To make matters more complicated, I broke my USB at IDEA last month which just so happens to have every bit of blog related information on it. Fortunately I have a back up sans one month of data, but still.
I feel like a lost blogger without it. I did find a company who was able to recover most of the data for a lofty price. Crossing my fingers when it arrives this week it's all there. Please let something be easy!
Speaking of easy, this Sausage Tomato Breakfast Pizza is one of the easiest egg bakes I've ever made, and the best part? It tastes exactly like pizza. Who doesn't love pizza for breakfast? But this savory pizza is one you can feel good about eating because it's loaded with protein and vegetables.
One of my biggest tips for those of you starting to eat healthy is to eat a protein packed breakfast every day.
For a long time, I only ate a bowl of cereal or grabbed a muffin. An hour or two later, my blood sugar would drop and I was eating sugar until lunch. Sound familiar?
Eating a protein packed breakfast like this Sausage Tomato Breakfast Pizza is a guaranteed way to staying full and avoiding those nasty sugar crashes.
And just to make your life even easier, make it ahead of time so it's ready to heat and eat during the week. Pre-made pizza for breakfast? Now that's my kind of breakfast!

Looks like I have found something delicious for the breakfast tomorrow. Thanks for sharing. Looks yummy indeed!
Enjoy!
I've made this for my family twice and it's brilliant.
Keep on saying 'make that sausage breakfast thingy!'
Cheers!
That's awesome!
The first time i made it.... turned out PERFECT! Great for breakfast at home
Glad you liked it. One of my favs!
Pizza for breakfast? YES PLEASE!
Megan, these pictures are stunning, and I totally understand your OCD! I think we'll never be completely happy with our blog pictures, indeed I'm forever going back and re-doing mine and updating what I've written. Still, I suppose that's progress?
Yes, the technical stuff. I've had to invest time to understand that more. I've had to outsource my hosting too. The guy I use is in Santa Monica. He's brilliant and if you want any details about him, give me a shout. 🙂
Thanks Neil! I feel like I'm spending way too much time lately photo editing because I'm being so critical.
I did find someone to fix up the blog in Sweden and so far so good. But I'll keep you in mind in case things get harry again.
Looks delicious! Do you have a youtube channel? I don't think I can ever make it as pretty as you do though. 🙁
Thanks for the compliment! I do have a YouTube channel but there's nothing on it.
Love this! It sounds amazing...the perfect make-ahead option for busy days!
I'm so sorry that you've been having technical issues -- those stress me out SO MUCH. You definitely need someone to take that weight off of your shoulders. It's too much!
I finally had someone fix it. It was making me crazy.
I have trouble shooting eggs too! They are my all time favorite food though.
I think it's because I have so much sun in AZ. If you figure it out, let me know!
I've never had a breakfast pizza before, but I'm not sure why I haven't because it's exactly the kind of thing I would love! This sounds delicious, and I would just take out the sausage for myself since I'm a vegetarian. I will bookmark this recipe!
Oh yes, it would still be delicious without the sausage! Some tofu might work too.
All things delicious in one meal! I love eggs I eat them everyday sometimes two times a day just because I LOVE THEM so much! Thanks for sharing this delicious meal!
We sound like twins! Eggs are definitely my first love too.
I heard pizza and so you know I had to be involved.
My life has been a comedy of errors this week. Good things by and large, but then just classic errors over and over again. WHY CAN"T I GET IT TOGETHER
Tell me about it! It happens to everyone my dear. Sometimes you just have to laugh and keep moving forward.
Holy yummo!!! I love this idea - breakfast pizza! Dave would love this!!! He can't do chicken sausage but I bet he will love some pepperoni on that!!
Oh yes, he will love the flavors here! I don't even love pizza and I'm all into this one.
I love breakfast pizzas! This one looks fabulous, pinned 🙂
Thanks! I hope you love it. 🙂
