A hearty keto-friendly breakfast that blends traditional pizza flavors with healthy ingredients, perfect for a quick and satisfying morning meal.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons keto Italian sausage (or 1 link of breakfast sausage with casing removed)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon red onion (chopped)
- 2 large mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 2 large eggs
- to taste pink salt
- to taste cracked black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon tomato sauce with basil
- 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- to taste Parmesan cheese (grated)
- to taste crushed red pepper flakes
- to taste fresh flat-leaf parsley (chopped)
Instructions
Cooking the Sausage
- Cook the sausage over medium-high heat until there is no pink color left, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon as it cooks.
Preparing Vegetables
- While the sausage is cooking, chop the veggies.
- Once the sausage is cooked, remove it from the pan and place it on a plate.
- Add a tablespoon of butter to the pan and sauté the onions, mushrooms, and garlic until they are soft, about 3 minutes. Remove these vegetables from the pan and set them with the sausage.
Making the Egg Base
- Reduce the heat to low and wipe out the pan.
- In a bowl, beat the eggs and add salt, pepper, basil, and oregano.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the pan. When the butter has melted, pour the eggs into the pan. Swirl the pan so the eggs spread evenly.
- Cook the eggs until the bottom is firm and the edges are firming up.
- Remove the pan from the heat, cover it with a plate, and flip the egg layer onto the plate. Carefully slide the eggs back into the pan. Turn off the heat.
Assembling the Pizza
- Spread the tomato sauce over the eggs, then add the shredded cheese, cooked sausage, mushrooms, onions, and garlic on top.
- Cover the pan with a lid to help the cheese melt.
- Gently slide the pizza onto your plate.
- Finish off with grated Parmesan, red pepper flakes, and chopped parsley if desired.
Notes
Serve warm, cut into slices like a regular pizza. Can be enjoyed with avocado or a fresh salad for a complete meal. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.
