Skip the leftover store-bought pizza straight out of the fridge, because we’ve got something that’s so much better. You can still enjoy pizza for breakfast, but with our Pizza Omelette, you’ll be skipping the not-so-healthy stuff and fueling up on a protein-packed, veggie-topped meal that satisfies hunger and prepares you for everything in the day ahead.
Our Pizza Omelette cuts the crust and the carbs, making it a great breakfast for anyone who’s gone low-carb. In place of traditional crust, a fluffy bed of eggs acts as your base. Eggs are one of the best foods you can eat if you’re following the keto diet or trying to limit carbs – in one large egg, you’ll get less than 1 gram of carbs. And if you’re looking for a lot of protein, the 6 grams of protein inside each egg will suit your needs perfectly.
But this omelette is more than just low-carb. It’s also topped with nutrient-rich green bell peppers and mushrooms, plus slices of satisfying (and protein-rich) salami. And you can’t skip over the classic tomato-based pizza sauce, which really makes this breakfast “pizza” feel like a classic slice.
This breakfast-approved spin on pizza is also Paleo-friendly and gluten-free; just make sure if you’re opting for a pre-made pizza sauce that you choose one that doesn’t feature any gluten. Plus, you can customize your omelette just like you would your pizza toppings. You can add any of your favorite veggies into the mix if you want to change things up.
