We're breaking out a pizza theme this week to celebrate NDFB Week. The theme for the week is, "Telling the story of agriculture one slice at a time." So, we decided to get in on the act! We have a special page devoted to pizza and we'll be sharing recipes, pizza facts and more!
This breakfast pizza recipe comes from a flier that has been hanging out in my office since 1989. The flier is called "From Our Centennial Kitchen" and it features "tasty recipes to celebrate North Dakota's first 100 years." It was compiled from food-lovers around the state, and even though I have not tried this recipe, it sounds delicious. (You can't go wrong when pork sausage is one of the ingredients!)
