Breakfast Calzone with Mozzarella Cheese, Eggs, and Sausage
Breakfast Calzone with Mozzarella Cheese, Eggs, and Sausage is a delicious and filling breakfast dish that is perfect for a lazy weekend morning. This dish is a combination of savory sausage, fluffy eggs, and gooey mozzarella cheese, all wrapped up in a warm and crispy calzone crust.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1/2 cup of cooked sausage, crumbled
- 2 eggs, scrambled
- 1/4 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup of pizza sauce
- 1/4 cup of chopped bell peppers
- 1/4 cup of chopped onions
- 1/4 cup of chopped mushrooms
- 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 pre-made pizza dough
To start, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Roll out the pizza dough into a large circle and place it on a baking sheet. Spread the pizza sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
Next, add the cooked sausage, scrambled eggs, chopped bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms on top of the pizza sauce. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the filling.
Fold the pizza dough over the filling, pressing the edges together to seal the calzone. Use a fork to crimp the edges and poke a few holes in the top of the calzone to allow steam to escape.
Bake the calzone in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy. Let the calzone cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
This Breakfast Calzone with Mozzarella Cheese, Eggs, and Sausage is a perfect combination of savory and cheesy flavors, with a crispy crust that adds a satisfying crunch. It's a great way to start your day and keep you full until lunchtime.
