What is pizza omelette?

Basically a pizza omelette is omelette with pizza style toppings. A pizza omelette is like the best of both worlds—pizza and breakfast all rolled into one! Imagine taking all your favorite pizza toppings like pepperoni, cheese, and maybe some veggies, and stuffing them inside a fluffy omelette.

Instead of a pizza crust, you use eggs. You can add some tomato sauce or marinara to give it that real pizza flavor. It's super easy to make and perfect for when you can't decide between pizza and breakfast.

What sort of toppings can you use?

For example, you can start by cooking some pepperoni in a skillet until it's nice and crispy. Then, whisk up a few eggs, season them with a bit of salt and pepper, and pour them into the hot skillet. Once the eggs start to set, you can add your toppings like cheese, pepperoni, and maybe some mushrooms or green peppers. Fold the omelette over, let the cheese melt, and you're good to go!

The only thing you need to bear in mind is that the omelette will be cooked within 5-8 minutes, so your vegetables need to be ready at the same time.

If they can't be cooked or warmed up during that time, don't add them in. For example if you want to add potatoes, cook them first (or use leftover potatoes) and then add them on the top of the omelette to warm up.

I usually just add anything I have around in the kitchen or fridge - any leftover vegetables are fine. What makes this pizza omelette quite special is the extra herbs, like the fresh basil leaves, which add a hint of fragrance and zinginess to the meal.

This vegetables pizza omelette is very easy to make and makes perfect breakfast, brunch or quick snack meal.

What to serve with your omelette

This pizza omelette is perfect as it is and if you are counting calories, you probably want to serve it as it is or with a simple side salat.

Delicious homemade bread is a great accompaniment to go with your omelette. I've specifically chosen types of bread, that are flavoursome and one slice is usually enough to serve with pizza omelette.
