(14,400 posts)it's no worse than any other bacon and egg breakfast.
But after looking at the recipe there is no way in hell that the egg or pre-cooked bacon on that pie was in a 550 degree oven for 6 minutes. The recipe as written would give you a dried up egg on a bed of bacon cremains.

(20,176 posts)The bacon comes out perfect at that temperature and time. It produces better quality than the skillet or flattop in larger quantities.
There's a fancy pizza, one of those haute cuisine things, where you take a white pizza with arugula (sometimes ham as welll) and crack an egg on it as it's going in the oven and the egg basically fries in the center in the oil from the sauce and grease from the cheese. It's amazing.

(20,176 posts)It's a common fancy brunch food, though usually it's named and described as a torte rather than a pizza. Nevertheless, it's a personal pizza with breakfast meats, fried egg, cheese and a savory green of some sort.

(12,676 posts)They opened at 7am with breakfast sandwiches and breakfast "pockets" (calzones) and closed at 11pm with pizza, cheesy bread-sticks, and hot hoagies/cheese steaks and beer. Even though they had a "captive" customer base (it was always a duty day for someone and they were out in the middle of nowhere on base), they really did try to do a good job. They proofed and threw their own pizza dough there, so their pizzas were pretty decent.
They added a 8" personal and a 14" breakfast pizza (for people who wanted to bring it back to the work centers for later).
Bacon, sausage, or "mixed meats", cheese (any combo of two - mozzarella, asiago, feta, cheddar jack), scrambled egg, with your choice of veggie (onions, peppers, fried hash-browns, pepperoncini, spinach, black or green olives, and mushrooms - each 25 cents extra after the first) and sauce (house garlic bechemel or house marinara).
The house garlic with feta and asiago, bacon, onions, pepperoncini, spinach, black olives and mushrooms was pretty damn tasty.
They also did a breakfast salad, for the low carb/protein diet eaters, a pretty decent chop salad with a fried or scrambled egg, bacon, or sausage with veggies and a vinaigrette or a house lemon-juice/mayo/salt-n-pepper dressing.
It was run by a couple retired mess specialists who had been stationed on submarines, so the talent of the cooks was top-notch and very innovative.
And then the base decided to "privatize" and put in a food court run by Host instead. Starbucks, Subway, and a 24 hr. Micky-D's...

(35,730 posts)I discovered breakfast pizza this week.
I had made a mushroom pizza. The next morning, I put an egg on it and it was the most delicious breakfast. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

It was weird at first, but then it seemed better next time (a friend brought one over)
(an acquired taste, tho')
There's a place in Sacramento, CA that does a mean business selling them (and other pizzas)
