Ingredients
  

1 pre-made pizza crust (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup breakfast sausage, crumbled and cooked

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

4 large eggs

1/4 cup milk

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1 tablespoon olive oil

Fresh chives or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to preheat at 425°F (220°C) so it's ready for baking.

    Prepare the Pizza Crust: If you're using a store-bought pizza crust, refer to the package instructions for any pre-baking needed. For homemade crust, roll it out to your desired thickness and transfer it to a lightly greased pizza pan, ensuring an even base.

      Cook the Sausage: In a medium skillet, heat over medium flame. Add the crumbled breakfast sausage and cook until it’s browned and fully cooked through. Drain excess grease from the skillet and set the sausage aside to cool slightly.

        Make the Egg Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, vigorously whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until the mixture is smooth and thoroughly combined.

          Assemble the Pizza:

            - Start by evenly distributing the cooked sausage over the prepped pizza crust.

              - Next, sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese followed by the cheddar cheese generously on top of the sausage.

                - Finally, pour the egg mixture over everything, making sure it spreads evenly to merge with the cheese and sausage.

                  Bake: Carefully place the assembled pizza in your preheated oven. Bake for approximately 12-15 minutes, or until the egg has set, and the cheese has melted to a golden, bubbly perfection.

                    Garnish: Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Optionally, sprinkle fresh chives or parsley over the top for a touch of color and freshness.

                      Slice and Serve: Cut the pizza into wedges and serve warm. This delightful breakfast pizza is perfect for a cozy morning meal or a hearty brunch gathering!

                          - Presentation Tips: Consider serving the pizza on a rustic wooden board or a vibrant platter, and accompany with a side of fresh fruit or a light salad for a well-rounded breakfast display. Enjoy!
