The history of breakfast pizza is a bit of a mystery, but it is thought to have originated in the United States in the early 20th century. One theory is that it was invented by Italian immigrants who were looking for a way to use up leftover pizza dough. Another theory is that it was created by American college students who were looking for a quick and easy way to get their breakfast. Whatever its origins, breakfast pizza has become a popular dish all over the world. It is a versatile dish that can be made with a variety of toppings, making it a great option for everyone from picky eaters to adventurous gourmands. Our pizza is made with whole-wheat dough for a bit of extra fiber, and we add veggies for some extra nutrition. We use eggs as the base instead of tomato sauce, because who doesn’t love a good breakfast casserole? The result is a hearty and satisfying breakfast that will keep you full all morning.
