- 8 ounces Odom's Tennessee Pride Mild Country Sausage, thawed if frozen

Step 1: Preheat and Set the Stage
Position your oven rack about 6 inches from the broiler to get that perfect crispy finish. Preheat your broiler and grab a baking sheet. Arrange the English muffin halves on the sheet and leave them aside for now—they’ll be center stage soon. -
Step 2: Cook the Sausage and Veggies
In a large skillet, apply a hearty spray of Pam and bring it to medium-high heat. Toss in the sausage, onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Let them mingle and sizzle together, stirring occasionally until the sausage is crumbled and veggies are tender, roughly five minutes. Once done, drain any excess liquid and transfer the mix to a plate, keeping them warm and cozy for later. -
Step 3: Scramble the Eggs
Dial down the heat to medium and pour those beaten eggs into the skillet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper for flavor. As the edges and bottoms start to firm up, gently stir them into a scramble. Keep going until they’re fully set, then move them to their own plate to keep warm. -
Step 4: Toast the Muffins
Slide your baking sheet with the muffin halves under the broiler. Let them toast for about two minutes until they’re golden and ready for toppings. Keep an eye out—these can go from perfect to too crispy in a heartbeat! -
Step 5: Assemble the Pizzas
It’s time to build your breakfast creations. Evenly distribute the savory sausage mixture on top of the toasted muffins. Layer on the scrambled eggs, and lavish each half with a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese. -
Step 6: Melt and Serve
Return your assembled muffins to the broiler. Allow the cheese to melt beautifully over everything, taking about three minutes. Once the cheese is bubbly and inviting, pull them out and serve your delicious breakfast pizzas immediately. Enjoy the fruits of your labor with every savory bite!
Notes
Whipping up these breakfast pizzas is as fun as it sounds, but a couple of hiccups can easily slip by. No one likes soggy muffins, right? To dodge this, ensure your muffins are properly broiled before piling on the toppings. Give them that golden, crispy touch to hold up all the delicious layers.
Overcooking the eggs is another sneaky snag. You want them tender, not rubbery. Keep an eagle eye on them and remember, they’ll continue cooking a bit as they cool. A little nudge with the spatula is all they need!
Lastly, the cheese. If it’s not melting smoothly, give it a bit more time under the broiler. Just be cautious not to overdo it and burn the muffins—unless crispy is your style!
