How to make breakfast tortilla pizza
Step 1: Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Step 2: Place a tortilla on a baking sheet. It’s a good idea to either oil the pan or use parchment paper to keep the tortilla from sticking.
Spread tomato sauce (you can use pizza sauce, tomato sauce or marinara sauce) and half of the mozzarella cheese onto each tortilla. Crack an egg in the center of each tortilla and sprinkle crumbled bacon. Add salt and black pepper to the egg.
Step 3: Bake for 12-15 minutes until the egg whites are set and the egg yolks are to your liking.
Step 4: Garnish with green onions and red pepper flakes. Serve immediately.

This pizza comes out perfect when you add the egg right to the top of the pizza before cooking. I love a sunny side up egg on my breakfast pizza!
You can use scrambled eggs, but you’ll want to be sure they are not cooked all the way through or they will dry out and be kind of rubbery.
