Breakfast Pizza With a Hash Brown Crust

This breakfast pizza can be customized with all of your favorite toppings.  The hash brown crust is what will steal the show though! What a fun base for a breakfast pizza!

    Apparently June is when I make breakfast pizza.  I originally posted this in June of 2015 and here I am again revisiting it!  This pizza has been a favorite for a number of years now.  MiMi made a bunch of them for Cori's bridal shower.  They were a big hit with everyone.  You can adjust the toppings to whatever you like.  I had some leftover ham to use and our green onions are going strong in the herb garden... so that was the combination we went with!  It would be good with sausage, bacon, peppers or mushrooms.  Anything you like in your omelets would be a perfect addition!

     If you follow along, you know by now that we like breakfast food but we rarely eat a real breakfast.  Don't worry, little dude eats a huge breakfast every morning... we aren't starving the kid.  But, my husband and I rarely eat actual breakfast.  So, we save our breakfast for dinner!  This made an excellent brinner for the three of us.

     Little dude loves eggs and cheese, so I knew he would like this pizza. This kid begs for hard boiled eggs.  He likes to crack them on the counter himself, or sometimes on his head. (Thanks for that one Nana!)   Then he goes over to the trash can and carefully peels his egg.  In the beginning, I would check them over before he could eat them to make sure he got all of the shell.  Now, I trust that he has it all off.   That is how much this little guy loves his eggs!  So, it shouldn't be surprising that he liked this pizza so much he asked for some for some the next day for breakfast and more for dinner!  (Two years later this all still rings true!)
