Breakfast Pizza



Ingredients:
Pizza dough (I purchase this already mixed in a ball at the local grocers)
1 16 oz. can of sausage gravy (or use leftover if you've recently made this from scratch)
.... 1 can is enough for 2 16" pizzas
1 cup of Mozzerella Cheese
4 Thinly sliced mushrooms
6 Slices of Canadian Bacon
4-6 Raw Eggs
1/8 cup chopped green onion tops.

Preheat over to 450 degrees.

Begin my either rolling your pizza dough into a circle to fit a 16" pizza pan or hand shaping it by turning it like a steering wheel.
Once your crust is formed, place on pizza pan and spread 3/4 cup of sausage gravy all around leaving 1/2" outer rim. Cover gravy with half of the cheese, chopped Canadian Bacon, and mushrooms. Crack eggs on top and sprinkle green onions and the remaining cheese.
Bake for 12-20 minutes or until crust and eggs are done.
