Description

Imagine starting your day with a delightful breakfast that's both flavorful and satisfying. This lox breakfast pizza offers a delicious and elegant twist on traditional morning fare, providing a symphony of textures and tastes that will awaken your senses and keep you feeling energized. Forget heavy, carb-laden options – this innovative dish features a light and savory base crafted from grated zucchini and Parmesan cheese, baked to golden perfection.

The zucchini provides a subtle sweetness and moisture, while the Parmesan adds a salty, nutty depth, creating a foundation that's both sturdy and delicious. Upon this delightful base, we build a masterpiece of breakfast flavors. Delicate strips of lox, with their characteristic smoky, salty, and slightly sweet notes, are artfully arranged, adding a touch of luxury and a burst of oceanic freshness.

Nestled amongst the lox are perfectly cooked eggs, their yolks offering a creamy richness that mingles beautifully with the other ingredients. Whether you prefer them sunny-side up, over easy, or softly scrambled, the eggs contribute a comforting and familiar element to the dish, adding both flavor and substance. To complete this culinary creation, a scattering of thinly sliced red onion adds a vibrant pop of color and a subtle sharpness that cuts through the richness of the lox and eggs.

The red onion's slight bite provides a welcome contrast, awakening the palate and adding complexity to the overall flavor profile. For an extra touch of decadence, consider adding dollops of whipped cream cheese. Its tangy, smooth texture complements the other ingredients, creating a harmonious blend of flavors that will leave you feeling utterly satisfied.

Each bite is an explosion of flavor and texture – the slight chewiness of the zucchini crust, the tenderness of the lox, the creaminess of the eggs, and the sharpness of the red onion all come together in perfect harmony. This lox breakfast pizza is not just a meal; it's an experience, a celebration of fresh, flavorful ingredients that will transform your morning routine.

Instructions

    1.
    Preheat an oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Shred a medium-sized zucchini and squeeze out the excess liquid. Transfer the zucchini shred to a mixing bowl. Ensure the final zucchini yield is the weight listed in the ingredients after removing the excess liquid.
    2.
    Combine the shredded parmesan and 1 egg with the zucchini shreds. Line a sheet tray with parchment paper and spread the zucchini mixture into a circle about 1/4-inch thick. Create a slight indentation to form a crust around the edge of the circle.
    3.
    Bake the zucchini crust for 20 minutes in the preheated oven. After baking, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Top the zucchini crust with the remaining 4 eggs. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the eggs.
    4.
    Slice and arrange the lox over the pizza, followed by diced red onion, distributing evenly over the partially baked crust.
    5.
    Bake the pizza once more for 15-20 minutes, based on how well you want the eggs to be cooked. Cooking for about 15 minutes will result in over-easy eggs.
    6.
    Allow the pizza to cool for 5 minutes, then slice into 4 slices. Garnish with chopped green onion, if desired.
