  • Let's try this...


    That 30 minute pizza I made on the Egg yesterday still had one piece left. I just couldn't eat another slice and was thinking of tossing it.

    But then I read a reply from Mickey that he likes cold pizza for breakfast. I don't, but it did give me an idea. I'll make a Leftover Pizza Omelete.

    Here's some photos of start to finish.

    Here's the slice I started with.

    Here it is after I scraped off the toppings along with a wee bit 'o crust.

    I prepared a Muddy Blary and some scrambled eggs. (the Muddy Blary was for me)

    I threw it into a hot pan with plenty of butter.

    I poured in the scrambled eggs.

    The Eggs are starting to set.

    I gently folded it all together.

    I prepared the table.

    And served in small slices until gone.

    Yes, it was delicious. Yes, I will do it again. And yes, it can and will be done on the Egg next time.

    So now we-who-can't-bear-the-thought-of-eating-cold-pizza-for-breakfast have an option for pizza leftovers.

    You're welcome.

    Will that work with leftover ribs?
    Salado TX & 30A  FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Just given a Mini to add to the herd. 

  • Now you're talking. I have about half a rack in the fridge. I'm doing that tomorrow!

    That looks great! I've never cared much for LOP either. I may have to try this.

  • Good idea. I have eaten cold pizza before, and I will again!

  • Hell, I ate cold ribs last night while I was cutting them off for tacos, but I'm doing the omelette tomorrow. (I'll still likely eat some cold while I'm cutting. Can't help it.)
  • On the same route as you went.....leftover omelets are awesome....taco omelets rule!!!!  Another fun one is a pasta omelet, (fresh mac'n cheese is fun).  But then again...there's the spaghetti burrito....why mess a dish, wrap it, heat it, eat it...

    I'm a big fan of omelets and that's a nice looking one.

    But I'm also a big fan of cold LOP. Don't know why.

  • As promised: left over rib omelette. I should qualify this with I'm the worst omelette turner on the face of this earth and likely beyond.

    That said, his was really good. Ribs, Gouda and havarti.
