Breakfast Pizza

Posted by Chef Jim on August 31, 2010  |  No Comments

Cooking with your kids can be fun — and tasty. Here’s a breakfast pizza I made using crescent rolls and lots of other delicious ingredients.

2 packages crescent roll, refrigerated, (2 full cans)
1 pound sausage meat, lean
1 cup hash brown potatoes, shredded, frozen
1 cup Cheddar cheese, grated
5 large eggs
1/4 cup skim milk
2 scallions, trimmed and sliced thinly
Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 375. Unroll the crescent rolls and press together to form a solid crust in a 12 inch pizza pan or on a baking sheet.

Brown the sausage in a skillet, remove and drain on paper towels. Crumble sausage over pizza crust.

Sprinkle frozen hash browns over sausage and top with cheese.
Using a wire whisk beat the eggs with the skim milk. Pour mixture over pizza.

Sprinkle top of pizza with the Parmesan and scallions, Place in oven and bake for 35 minutes or until set.
