Tips & Variations

  • For a spicier kick, try a different chili sauce or add crushed red pepper flakes to the egg mixture.
  • Substitute bacon bits with cooked sausage or diced ham for a different flavor.
  • Use whole wheat English muffins for a heartier, fiber-rich option.
  • Add chopped veggies like bell peppers or spinach to the egg mixture for extra nutrition.

Storage

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm the breakfast pizzas in an oven or toaster oven at 350°F until heated through and the cheese is melty. Avoid microwaving to keep the English muffin from becoming soggy.
