I used to make this bacon pizza for my morning drivers when I worked at a delivery place. And they just loved it. Breakfast pizza is a quick and easy eye-opener that appeals to all ages. —Cathy Shortall, Easton, Maryland

It was a hit for brunch! You can pick it up and eat it just like regular pizza. I followed the recipe almost exactly, but added frozen maple breakfast sausage, cooked and broken into small pieces, and used regular bacon I broke up into pieces. I put cheese both under and on top of the bacon and sausage, and actually everything got mixed together and it was still great (don't forget to pre-bake the crust!!). I also lightly seasoned the eggs with celery salt and pepper. Didn't measure the cheese--just used what looked right which probably was about 1 cup of each. Really easy and really good!

What is not to like? If you are a breakfast person, this is a good one! Love that it's easy to make and uses staple ingredients. You can always change out the bacon for some cooked sausage or Canadian bacon slices.

I added a bacon chipotle smoked sea salt to the eggs and it was perfect. We loved this.

I made this recipe as directed. It was super easy and really fast to make. In the future, like others said, I would add more seasoning to the eggs such as pepper or hot sauce.

This was easy and delicious! I used milk instead of water and I switched out the bacon for ham. I also had some extra hashbrowns to use up and that was a great addition!

Made the recipe as written and thought it was average. Needed seasoning to give it more flavor. I think that the bacon did not give it enough flavor for my taste and that the addition of sausage would have helped. It was easy to make and attractive,

I haven't tried this recipe yet, but want to...but for those of you who have, how would it be if you spread a bit of sausage gravy over the crust before putting on the eggs and cheese? Campbell's has a very good canned sausage gravy that would make it quick and easy.

Very good...quick and easy. I used microwave bacon and crumbled it on the pizza. Reheats well.

I changed this up slightly; added a chicken gravy on top of the crust-it ads a great touch and helps keep everything together. Also used crumbled sausage instead of bacon bits, and substituted croissant rolls for the pizza crust, made it more buttery and breakfast-y.
