My posting on the recipe board could possibly give someone the very false impression that I have cooking skills---not true. All thumbs in the kitchen and spend almost no time there. But I came up with an original idea I want to share with you and if I can do it--anybody can.My idea is just the bland,proto type version and I'm sure someone with culinary skills can add to it and perfect it. I already posted my dads simple recipe for biscuits. Self rising flour,buttermilk,salt and grease. What I did was used the biscuit recipe for a pizza crust. I mixed UNMEASURED amount of self rising flour and buttermilk into a thick paste(truth was it was slightly dry could have used a touch more buttermilk)and some salt----maybe a teaspoon or less. Once, mixed I placed it on a slighly greased platter and by hand rolled it out until it covered the platter and I made it thicker and higher around the edges sorta like a pie crust. I placed some grease on my hands as I was forming it so that some grease was being worked into the top of it. I started baking this and while it was baking,I mixed six eggs,salt,pepper,dab of milk and stirred it up real good. The biscuit crust had been baking a few minutes before I started cooking my egg mixture. I stirred the egg mixture fairly frequently while it cooked in a slightly oiled skillet. I cooked it until almost done and then removed it from the heat. I let my crust bake until fairly well done. Then I added the egg mixture to the crust. I cut up some smoked sausage into thin pieces and placed all over the top of the eggs. Then I spread shredded cheeese pretty heavy on the top. I baked it some more and placed some sliced tomatoes on top when I removed it from the oven. Salsa would probably be much better if you have taste for such. I thought it was pretty good and neither of the other two that ate it died yet.

Oh? I must have missed something... I didn't get ANY sort of impression that you knew your way around the kitchen.

The breakfast pizza sounds interesting, though. I might try it out some Saturday morning, just for something different.

Carpetman, you just invented Quiche!!

My German/Romanian grandmother, used to make the same sort of thing, when we spent summers on the farm. We just referred to it as egg-pizza. Little did we know we were eating something as hoity-toity as Quiche!

She used to cook us really thin pancakes that we would fill with jam, or cottage cheese and fresh dill, then roll up and eat. Took me years to figure out we were eating Crepes.

To us, it was soul food. Same with Cabbage Soup, Stuffed Peppers, Cabbage Rolls and Goulash. Nowadays, some fancy restaurants promote these like they invented them.

It's gonna be "Breakfast Pizza" when i make it. My husband is German, but i know he won't want to eat any "quiche."

I'm going to put the Salsa directly on top of the crust and then the browned sausage and then put Swiss cheese on top.

I don't know if i can wait till Saturday, though. I might make it for supper some night.... Naw, then i'd have to call it quiche.

Nah it aint quichie--it's breakfast pizza. I hate quichie whatever it is. Saw it on a menu once and thought it said quickie,so ofcourse I ordered it and the waitress slapped me.

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.....good stuff.

I browned sausage links while i was making the dough. Then spread the dough out and put salsa all over the top except for the edges. Put the sausages on it like the spokes on a wagon wheel. Then scrambled some eggs. (i used a carton of egg beaters) Put those on top of the sausages and then put shredded cheddar and then shredded Swiss on top. Baked at 415 degrees for ???? it seemed forever, but it finally got done. It was really REALLY good.

You came up with a good one, Carpetman. What's for supper?

Carpetman, I hope that sausage didn't come from what I think it did....Birman will be pissed!

I spent a year and a half teaching cooking on a an Indian reserve.The people there make something very similar.They call their version Indian Tacos.After baking the bisquit base ,they put on hot cooked ground taco meat,shredded lettuce,grated cheddar cheese and diced tomatoes.Salsa and sour cream are served on the side.Often they form the bannock base as mentioned before but poke some small holes in the center and deep fat fry till puffy hot and golden.Then they add the toppings.Sounds like you just invented Indian Sausage Egg McMuffins.

My wife makes a breakfast pizza with eggs sausage cheese and what ever that we eat hot and also a vegitable pizza that we eat as a snack. Any way to my point... she uses the crescent rolls you buy in a tube for the crust, for those wanting an easy way.

Make it even easier on yourself - just mix 1 cup self-rising flour or bisquick, one cup of milk, 10 eggs, 1 pound of grated cheese and whatever other items you want - cooked bacon or sausage, sliced pepperoni, onions, peppers or?? Mix it all together and back in a greased (or sprayed with PAM) 11x13 pan at 350 degrees until the top is very lightly browned. (20 to 30 minutes) Let cool and cut into squares. Can be eaten cold or warm. Can be topped with sour cream, salsa, enchilada sauce or ?

California; That sounds good enough that I am going to try it. EASY IS GOOD! If I eat the whole thing my self I would vote for you for Gov. if I could!

Well, make sure you post how you like it! If you bake it too much, it can get dry. My mother-in-law adds cottage cheese to it, too.

Calif; I'm not a breakfast eater (slugs me down) but I LOVE breakfast food! We eat breakfast type stuff for supper and treats! I am thinking I'm going to have your recipe for the Packer Bear game Monday night! Lots of "CHEESE" Go Pack!

Calif,
I tried your recipe twice. It is great. I put tomatoes, ham, mushrooms, jalapeno in mine. Thanks for the great recipe.

Hey, have any of you newfound Quiche eaters started lisping, yet?

Do you hold your pinky finger up, when you drink your tea now??

Just kidding. It's a great, easy meal. Now, who's ready to try caviar, smoked oysters and dry martinis?

Pinky's up, remember!!

I'm glad you guys liked it. I had some pepper plants going crazy, and wanted to find something else I could put them in. I chop up Anaheim, jalapeno or whatever, cook them just a little in butter or oil or even boil them in a little water and add them to this. It's good for hunting trips - I made up a bunch, cut into squares, froze them and will just warm them up this weekend when I'm out for quail opener!
