Breakfast Pizza Tortilla High-Protein with Egg
Ingredients
- 1 corn tortilla
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons pizza sauce
- 2 ounces mozarella cheese
- 2 ounces ground turkey sausage
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with a sheet of parchment paper.
- Place the corn tortilla on a baking sheet and spread the pizza sauce evenly over the top of the pizza. Keep the sauce within .25 inch of the edge of the tortilla.
- Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Build it up a little denser toward the edges of the tortilla to contain the egg. Spread your cooked meat on top of the cheese.
- Crack an egg in the center of the tortilla, keeping the yolk intact. Season with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes for a runny yolk or 10-12 minutes for a firmer yolk. Remove from the oven and serve warm.

Notes
For a firmer egg: Bake the pizza for an additional 2 minutes until the yolk is cooked through.
Crispier tortilla: Place the tortilla directly on the oven rack for a crispier base.
Pizza Slicing: You can slice up your tortilla like a traditional pizza or simply fold it in half and eat it like a taco.
Melty Cheese: I recommend buying block cheese and shredding it for the best melt. Store-bought pre-shredded cheese is often coated in cellulose to keep it from sticking together and doesn't melt quite as smoothly.
