This vegetarian breakfast pizza recipe is filling with both complex carbohydrates and satiating protein. It’s also bursting with flavor and a great way to start the day with veggies!

What’s the truth about breakfast anyway? Is it the most important meal of the day? Do we really need to eat it within 30 minutes of waking up? How do we know what’s the truth or just a rumor? 

So, I’ve always been a breakfast lover. It’s my favorite meal of the day.

Scratch that – BRUNCH is my favorite meal of the day. It’s between breakfast and lunch, and often includes all my favorite breakfast foods, except just MORE of them.

Any foodie loves the choice of an asparagus quiche, fruits, pancakes, berry waffles, or french toast sticks. Plus, mimosas, dips and the whole spread.

Brunch is the perfect excuse to try it all. Especially with this veggie breakfast pizza recipe.

Benefits of breakfast:

If you need a nudge for why you should eat breakfast, consider these reasons for making this veggie breakfast pizza.

• You want your breakfast to set you up for the day! You’ve just been hibernating all night, right? Your body wakes up and needs fuel to get you through the upcoming day’s adventures.
• Glucose gives us energy and helps us concentrate (at work or in school). In fact, many studies such as this one, have shown that regular meal times and healthy breakfast choices were associated with better school performance and improved cognitive function
• It may help us distribute energy more evenly throughout the day and prevents us from overeating at subsequent meals and snacks (Source)
• In provides endurance, which is great in helping us maintain and fuel for an active lifestyle
• It provides essential vitamins and nutrients (assuming we are choosing healthy options with fiber, whole grains, protein, healthy fat)
• Breakfast skipping has been linked to poorer diet quality overall (Source)

Furthermore, breakfast consumers exhibit better glucose control throughout the day compared with those who skip a morning meal.

Vegetarian Breakfast Pizza Ingredients

This veggie breakfast pizza is filled with whole grains (complex carbohydrates), ample fiber from the sweet potatoes and veggies, healthy fats and satiating protein from the eggs and cheese, and all around flavor.

• onions

Ingredients

• ½ medium sweet potato, cut into discs
• ¼ tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
• ¼ tsp oregano
• ¼ tsp basil
• 1/8 - 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, optional
• 1 tortilla wrap or flatbread

• 1/3 cup chopped tomato
• ¼ cup sliced broccoli florets
• 1 handful of spinach

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. While waiting for oven to preheat, you can cut your vegetables. Chop cooked sweet potato into disc shapes.
2. Mix your seasonings in a small bowl.
3. Toast flatbread for 2 minutes in oven to get them a little crisp. Then, scoop out half of avocado and spread it on the flatbread as the base layer. Layer sweet potato discs on top of avocado.
4. Add additional toppings based on your liking. I used Kalamata olives, mushrooms, tomatoes, artichokes, broccoli and spinach.

Since I love dippy yolks, I folded the flatbread over ever so gracefully.

Or, eat it like a pizza!
