Servings 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tsp. light-tasting olive oil plus more for coating
  • Refrigerated pizza dough white or whole grain
  • 8-12 oz ground breakfast sausage chicken, pork, turkey, or plant-based
  • ½ tsp. garlic powder
  • 8 oz. shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 bag fresh spinach 5 oz., chopped finely, divided
  • 3 large eggs
  • Red pepper flake to taste (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Remove pizza dough from refrigerator and allow to rest at room temp for about 20-30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly coat a baking sheet with olive oil. Allow the baking sheet to preheat in the oven for about 5-10 minutes.  
  • Heat 1 tsp. olive in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage, breaking apart as it cooks until they are fully cooked and crumbled. Drain on paper towels if necessary. 
  • Working on a surface sprinkled with flour, roll out pizza dough into about a 12 inch round (or oval like me!) Sprinkle garlic powder all over pizza dough. Remove preheated pan from oven, and transfer the seasoned dough to pan. 
  • Save a large handful of the spinach to sprinkle on top after pizza is cooked for a fresh taste (optional) — top dough with remaining spinach, sausage, and mozzarella cheese. Aim to leave a little bit of space to place eggs later. 
  • Bake pizza for about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven. Top pizza with eggs, gently cracking eggs onto crust while keeping the yolks intact.
  • Put pizza back in oven and cook for additional 8-10 minutes or until crust is golden brown and egg whites are set. 
  • Top with red pepper flake and extra spinach, if using. Serve immediately.
