Pizza for breakfast?! Yes please!
I never thought I'd be able to say that so soon after making my New Year's resolution. But this year, unlike others, I'm keeping my resolutions simple with one resolution; eat healthy. And this healthy breakfast pizza is the perfect way to do that!

And since pizza, in its traditional form, isn't necessarily the healthiest of breakfasts, a few years back, I created this simple and healthy Better for You Egg White Breakfast Pizza. It's a deep dish style egg white pizza, packed with healthy ingredients like whole grain, veggies and low-fat protein. But it’s so delicious you won’t even notice that it’s better for you! And it's only 1 Weight Watchers smart point per slice! It was inspired by my Weight Watchers Pizza with 2 ingredient Weight Watchers Pizza Dough.
Making one simple resolution is my new strategy. In the past, I have tried to take on way too many resolutions and it has not ended well.
Like many, I have overindulged over the holidays and I want to get back on track. But that doesn't mean that I want to give up pizza! Eggs, pizza and breakfast...well, they just naturally go together. And although whole eggs are healthy, a healthy breakfast pizza made with Naturegg Simply Egg Whites is a lighter meal option after the holidays (fewer calories and low-fat).

🥘 Ingredients
For this healthy breakfast pizza recipe, you'll need:
- Balady bread (giant whole wheat pitas)
- Brunbrae Farms liquid egg whites
- extra lean low-fat maple ham slices
- pizza sauce
- fat- free parmesan cheese
- low-fat cheddar cheese

🔪Instructions
📖 Variations & Substitutions
- ham - you could use low-fat turkey sausage as a substitute
- chives- you could use green onions as a substitute
- mushrooms - you could use another vegetable like peppers, if you're not a fan
- other - add other healthy pizza toppings you like such as jalapenos, black olives, white onions
🍽 Equipment
This recipe works well with a 10 inch cast iron skillet/frying pan (affiliate link). I recommend the Lodge brand, they are excellent quality and pre-seasoned! However, if you don't have a cast iron frying pan, you can use a tart pan, a deep dish pizza pan or any 10" pan with raised edges.
🌡️Storing
This recipe can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheat in microwave for approximately 45 seconds. However, it can be eaten hot or cold.
One year I decided that my resolutions would include going to the gym several times a week, giving up junk food, eating healthy, losing 10 lbs and I even threw becoming a more courteous driver, into the mix.
Have you been to the gym the first week in January!?
It's a schmoz; a total fitness frenzy. The first time I went I couldn't even get on a machine, skipped my workout, was not a particularly courteous driver on my way home, then found solace in some junk food. After that experience, I actually started avoiding the gym until at least the end of February until I could be sure a bunch of those well-meaning resolution makers fell off the wagon. Because I knew they would. Stats show that 80% of us that make a resolution dump it within 3 months. For me, it was because it was not realistic.
When I say simple resolutions, I also mean realistic. I am not saying I will eat healthy every day because I know I will never keep that vow. Plus, I believe in balance. I have already built in some indulgence days. Building in indulgences, so I don't feel totally deprived, is what works for me.

But pizza doesn't have to be one of those indulgences when it’s made with liquid egg whites baked on whole grain with only 77 calories and 1 gram of fat per slice! And it's Weight Watchers friendly at only 1 smart point per slice! This easy and healthy egg white pizza is not only better for you, it makes keeping those healthy eating resolutions as easy as pizza pie! So, if you're looking for low fat breakfast ideas, this recipe fits the bill!
You can make this healthy breakfast pizza recipe ahead and heat it up in the microwave for 45 seconds or pop it in the oven while you get yourself and/or the kids ready. You can even take it on the go! It’s delicious hot or cold.

Nice recipe Terri. I'm going to try it as a frittata to be gluten free but I love the idea of simply using a pita bread for the crust. One can never have too many great ideas! Thanks.
Terri Gilson
Greatest idea to make it gluten-free, Cinde!

Pizza for breakfast? Yes please! So much better than leftover cold pizza, lol. Love how this is lightened up too...that means I get to eat a little extra, right 😉 ?

I just came across a recipe for breakfast nachos, and now this: BREAKFAST PIZZA. And I'm just over here skipping breakfast this morning. I've always loved eating leftover pizza for brekky, but I've never thought to make a legit breakfast pizza. This is fab!
Terri Gilson
Thanks, Dana! Yes, it's healthy and delicious and you can't go wrong with pizza! I am also very interested in those breakfast nachos -yum 🙂
