It’s a challenge to be creative with breakfast every morning, and I like to come up with fun foods the kids will love. This is a great recipe for the kids to join in and help make for breakfast. You can also make and freeze it before you add the eggs, then finish baking another day. \u2014Melissa Pelkey Hass, Waleska,

This was a lot of toppings to pile onto one crust. The flavors were good but you need to eat it with a knife and fork - which breaks my pizza rules. I also only added four eggs because six just seemed like overkill. If you are going to take a chance on this try using smoked paprika (if you have it). Also, the vinegar\/olive oil combo was way too much for the baby spinach and the sun dried tomatoes fought the vinegar for dominance. It was an interesting experiment - and a bright spot is that the eggs turned out well.<\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":3,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2022-05-08","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"jessica922"},"reviewBody":"I have tried this and I love it I had to make a pizza for my cooking class and I got an A so I really recommend","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}}]},"video":{"data":{"status":204},"message":"No shortcode found in recipe"},"rms_legacy_id":"192796","romance_copy_dek":"It's a challenge to be creative with breakfast every morning, and I like to come up with fun foods the kids will love.
