Servings: About 20 pizzas
Ingredients: 1 Tbsp lard or olive oil
1 small red onion, diced
1 Tbsp tomato paste
2 C tomatoes, diced (or one 14 oz. can, strained)
1 C pepperoni, diced
10 eggs
1 tsp salt
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 C black olives, chopped (optional)
1 C mushrooms, chopped (optional)
Instructions:
Heat lard or olive oil over medium heat
Saute onions until almost softened, about 5 minutes
Add tomato paste, cook and stir for one minute until well incorporated with onions
Add tomatoes, cook 2 minutes stirring frequently
Add pepperoni, cook together for 4 minutes, stirring frequently
? Crack and beat eggs until fluffy and bubbly
? Add oregano, basil, salt and pepper to eggs and mix
? Grease muffin tin cups (eggs will stick) or use a silicon pan or liners
? Spoon 1 Tbsp of tomato mixture plus any other additions into each muffin cup
? Pour egg mixture into muffin cups until they are ¾ full (eggs do fluff up in oven)
Bake at 325 degrees for 25-30 minutes, or until tops become golden brown. We prefer our slightly underdone if we’re saving them for the week so that when reheated the eggs do not become overcooked.
Notes: Makes 16-24 pizzas, depending on how much you fill the cups with toppings. We filled our muffin cups about 50% with toppings and 50% with eggs and had 20 egg cups.
