Keto Pizza Paella with Eggs
Pizza eggs are so delicious, and so easy. They are filling, and have enough “vitamin G” (grease) to soak up whatever is still haunting you from the night before. We used to eat these all the time when on ski trips- and they’d fill you up to get you going all day on the slopes.
I don’t know exactly where pizza eggs came about. Seems like a very odd thing but there are always good uses for pizza. This recipe is a great way to use your pizza for a wonderful breakfast the next day after a party. I’m not a huge fan of pepperoni with eggs but I know a lot of people who do. Any of your favorite pizza toppings will work- let me know what YOUR favorite combo is!

Pizza Eggs
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 tsp salted butter
- 3 eggs
- 6 tbsp marinara
- ¼ cup mozzarella cheese, shredded or torn
- 6 slices pepperoni
- 2 tbsp fresh basil, sliced
- 1 pinch salt and pepper
Instructions
- Melt butter over medium heat in a nonstick skillet and heat till bubbly.
- Break the 3 eggs in the skillet and let cook a few seconds until the eggs start to turn white. This forms the base of the "pizza."
- Spoon the marinara sauce between the egg yolks then top with shredded mozzarella.
- Place a lid on the skillet for a couple minutes to cook the eggs and melt the cheese. You can remove the lid to tap the yokes to check their doneness, cooking times may vary depending how you like your eggs.
- Take off the lid and add the pepperoni. Place under the broiler to brown the cheese if you want.
- Top with a pinch of salt and pepper (to taste) and sliced fresh basil and enjoy!
