Breakfast Pockets

Servings: 9

Ingredients:

  • 5 eggs
  • ¼ c cottage cheese
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • 1 – 10 oz tube refrigerated thin crust pizza crust
  • 9 precooked sausage patties
  • 1 c shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tsp water

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  2. In a microwave safe bowl, whisk together 5 eggs, the cottage cheese, salt and pepper.
  3. Microwave for one minute on high power, then stir with a rubber spatula. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each, until eggs are cooked through.
  4. Unroll the pizza crust and shape it into a large square. Use a pizza cutter to cut the crust into 9 even squares (3 columns and 3 rows).
  5. In the center of each square, place a sausage patty, some scrambled eggs and shredded cheese on top. Fold the corners of the crust into the center and pinch to secure. Place on prepared baking sheet.
  6. In a small bowl, use a fork to mix the egg yolk and water. Brush over the breakfast pockets.
  7. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the pockets are golden brown; enjoy warm.
