The one thing I miss more than anything since ditching gluten and dairy from my diet is a good slice of pizza. I’m absolutely loving this frittata style pizza made crustless with scrambled eggs. I love cast iron, but you can use any oven safe skillet that you can start on the stove top and finish under the broiler.
I made two versions at my house. One with fresh shredded mozzarella which looked gooily wonderful and a second with my favorite cheese substitute So Delicious brand mozzarella style cheese. My version had wonderful taste and texture that satisfied my pizza craving.
This is a perfect breakfast, lunch, or dinner for a low carb diet or someone trying to boost protein (which is always a goal of mine).
Gluten free. Grain free. No added sugar. Dairy free (if you use a substitute).

- 1/2 cup Pepperoni, chopped (or substitute sausage)

Instructions:
- Preheat Broiler to 500 degrees while you prepare the eggs.

- Add eggs to the pan, cook for 2 minutes, then add pepperoni mixture.
- Move the pan to the oven and broil for 3-4 minutes until top starts to set. Remove from oven and top with sauce and cheese. Return to oven for an additional 5 minutes or until eggs are cooked through.
