Written by Pizza for breakfast—every college student’s dream (and nightmare). My college years, and pre-paleo days, often consisted of pizza for breakfast, or whatever takeout was leftover. An adage of mine that survived this period of life is, “if it isn’t good cold, it isn’t good,” and I still use this for food and recipes today. We don’t often splurge for pizza these days, paleo or otherwise; but when Heather asked for breakfast this Sunday morning, I had an urge to be creative. About 30 minutes later, we were full and this recipe was born.
We made this paleo breakfast pizza fairly plain, with a topping of pepperoni and fresh basil, but don’t let that stop you from making it your own. We’ll likely update this post as we move forward with additional ideas, but feel free to add veggies, additional meats (…bacon?!), or cheese, if you tolerate it. Let us know in the comments how you personalize this paleo pizza, and enjoy!
