Bring Green (not food coloring) To Your St. Patty’s Day Breakfast Table. My family never gets tired of this St. Patty’s Day breakfast. In the past we’ve had green pancakes with green milk (yay food coloring) and have even stopped by Dunkin Donuts for some green donuts (yay sugar). I’ve even served green scrambled eggs to show our Irish spirit, which didn’t go over too well. This simple recipe for Shamrock Eggs is all natural and takes just minutes.
I’ll always remember the first time I made Shamrock Eggs because my Aunt Peggy was in town visiting my cousin and stopped by my house that quiet weekday morning on her way back home. “Perfect timing” I said as I set the table to try out this new simple recipe on her. Looking back on my food photos I’ll always remember our unexpected breakfast as I snapped the camera before we ate. Then again, my friends and family are used to being my test subjects for new recipes anytime they stop by my house.
2 cups fresh spinach leaves, rinsed and patted dry
1 frozen pizza dough, thawed
1 cup spaghetti sauce or Ragu® Pizza Quick Sauce
2 plum tomatoes, sliced in half lengthwise and cut into slices or 1 sliced red bell pepper or a mixture of the two
Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Take two slices of mozzarella cheese and stack together.
Use kitchen scissors or small knife to cut a few star shapes out of the cheese. Slice remaining cheese slices into 1-inch strips.
Preheat oven to 450°.
Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Stretch pizza dough to fit a rectangular pan. Spread sauce evenly over dough.
Sprinkle spinach over top left corner of dough. Place stars on the spinach. Lay tomatoes (or peppers) and cheese strips in alternating strips on rest of the pizza.
Bake 10 to 20 minutes until cheese is melted and starting to turn golden and crust is starting to brown. Remove from oven and serve with crushed red pepper flakes (if using).
