A miniature pizza that’s handheld, freezer-friendly, and endlessly adaptable—from meat lover’s options to veggie delights.

Choosing Toppings and Prepping Like a Pro
The beauty of breakfast pizzas is in their flexibility. Start with a halved English muffin, then pile on toppings such as scrambled eggs, shredded cheese, cooked sausage or bacon, vegetables, and a dollop of salsa or pizza sauce. For lightning-fast prep, efficiently dice veggies using the Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper, ensuring consistent size and perfect bites every time.
For those saving time, make use of store-bought pizza sauce or use leftover roasted veggies for extra flavor.
Perfectly Cooked Eggs—Your Way
