Recipe: Mini Breakfast Pizza

I've been dying to make a breakfast pizza with an over easy egg on top.  I had some whole wheat flat bread (from Trader Joe's) and decided to make the perfect individual pie.  This recipe was super easy and I used a lot of the ingredients I had bought to make my greek salad earlier in the week.  Can't wait to make this more often, or make for friends for brunch!

Mini Breakfast Pizza

Ingredients:

1 whole wheat flat bread (try Middle Eastern Flatbread from Trader Joe's)

Sliced sugar plum tomatoes (add as many as you wish)

1 tbsp chopped flat leaf parsely

1 tbsp sliced shallots (or red onions)

1 tbsp olive oil (I used Garlic flavored olive oil)

2 tbsps shaved parmesan cheese (I don't feel guilty for adding more since parmesan is pretty low cal!)

1 egg

Spread olive oil on flatbread.  Add shallots, sliced tomatoes, parsely and parmesan cheese.  Crack egg in center of flatbread.  Add salt and pepper to taste.

Bake in a baking sheet on 450 degrees for about 8-10 minutes or until egg is cooked.  (I cooked the egg over easy so it runs when you slice into it)

Recipe: Strawberry & Almond Butter Sandwich (200 calories and under)

I always crave something sweet after every meal and this little concoction tricks my brain into thinking I'm having some kind of strawberry cake! This recipe would actually make a really good breakfast since it covers your protein (almond butter), serving of fruit and a little bit of carbs to make your meal feel complete.

Strawberry & Almond Butter Sandwich

Ingredients:

1 slice whole wheat sandwich thin (about 50 calories for 1 slice)

3-4 strawberries, sliced (about 20 calories)

1 tbsp Almond Butter (about 100 calories of good for you fats)

Toast sandwich thin and spread almond butter so it melts evenly.  Top with sliced strawberries.
