South Beach Diet Online (Phase 2) Pizza for breakfast? Why not? It's especially tasty when topped with a sunny-side-up egg and veggies. Quarter or halve the recipe for just one or two pizzas, and try shredded part-skim mozzarella instead of feta, if you like. Ingredients:
5 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil, divided |
4 cups spinach, packed |
2 (6 inch) whole grain pita, halved horizontally |
2 large plum tomatoes, thinly sliced |
4 large eggs |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
2 ounces reduced-fat feta cheese, crumbled (1/3 cup) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
2. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of oil over medium heat. Add spinach, in batches if necessary, and cook until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Brush inside of each pita round with 1 teaspoon oil. Place pita rounds, oiled side up, on a large baking sheet and bake until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven.
4. Divide tomatoes and spinach evenly among pita halves, leaving an empty space in the center of each for an egg. Crack 1 egg into the center of each pita. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, return to the oven, and bake until yolks are lightly set, 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese and continue baking until cheese has softened, about 2 minutes more. Serve warm.
