Nutritional Benefits:
- Eggs: Packed with protein, vitamins, and minerals that help fuel your day.
- Cheese: Provides calcium and adds a creamy, melty texture to each bite.
- Bacon Bits: Adds protein and a satisfying smoky flavor.
Ingredients:
- 8 large eggs
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp onion powder
- ¾ cup real bacon bits, divided
- 6 English muffins, split in half
- ½ cup Heinz chili sauce
- 1½ cups shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese blend
Cooking Tips:
- Scrambling Eggs: Keep the eggs soft and creamy by cooking them on medium heat and stirring gently.
- English Muffins: For extra crunch, lightly toast the English muffins before adding toppings.
- Bacon Variation: Try using crumbled sausage or diced ham as an alternative to bacon bits.
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Set the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare Eggs: In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the heavy cream. Whisk until the eggs are fully beaten. Add salt, pepper, and onion powder, then whisk again to combine.
- Cook Eggs: Pour the egg mixture into a lightly greased non-stick sauté pan over medium heat. Stir gently as they cook to create soft curds. Once the eggs are mostly cooked but still slightly moist, stir in ½ cup of the bacon bits. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Prepare English Muffins: Place the split English muffins, cut side up, on a baking sheet. Spread a thin layer of Heinz chili sauce on each muffin half.
- Assemble Pizzas: Spoon the scrambled egg and bacon mixture onto each English muffin half, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the shredded cheese blend over the eggs, then top with the remaining ¼ cup of bacon bits.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve warm. Enjoy your delicious breakfast pizzas!
