Recipe: Vermont Maple Syrup Breakfast Pizza

VERMONT MAPLE SYRUP BREAKFAST PIZZA

"Pizza for breakfast? You bet. Fluffy scrambled eggs, mouth-watering Vermont Maple Syrup Links, and thick and chunky salsa are placed on a prebaked pizza crust, then covered with mozzarella cheese that bakes up bubbly and golden brown. You may wish to add sauteed green bell pepper, onion, or mushrooms for extra flavor and color."

1 (12-ounce) package Johnsonville Vermont Maple Syrup Links
1 (16-ounce) jar thick and chunky salsa
1 (12-inch) prebaked pizza crust
3 eggs, scrambled
4 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded

Prepare the links according to the package instructions. Drain and slice.

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Spread the salsa evenly over the pizza crust. Place the eggs evenly over the salsa, and cover with the sliced links.

Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the pizza, and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
