Ingredients

  • 1 13.8 oz can refrigerated pizza dough or 1lb homemade pizza dough
  • 16 oz egg whites OR 6 large eggs
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar or colby-jack cheese divided
  • 1 cup cooked and crumbled turkey or pork sausage
  • 1/3 cup red onion thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup green pepper thinly sliced
  • 3 Tbsp light butter melted

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Spritz a 12 inch pizza pan with cooking spray. Press the dough onto the pan.
  • Brush the entire crust with the melted butter and sprinkle with 1/2 of the shredded cheese.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium size skillet over medium heat soft scramble the eggs. Season with salt and black pepper to your taste. Set aside.
  • Drop spoonfuls of the cooked eggs over the cheese. Arrange the peppers, onions and sausage over the eggs and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top. 
  • Bake for 15-17 minutes until the crust is golden around the edges.
  • Garnish with chopped chives or thinly sliced green onion tops.

Notes

You can substitute cooked crumbled bacon, Canadian bacon or ham in place of the sausage crumbles. For a meatless version, try adding mushrooms instead.
