Breakfast pizza
Breakfast Pizza Casserole
It is a fact of life that little things happening in the morning can
really impact your mood and how the rest of your day goes. Waking up to a puking
kid at 5 a.m. usually will start the day in a downward spiral. Having your hair turn out just right equates to a good day.
Realizing that your car’s gas tank is on empty and you are already running late
for where you need to be? Not a great day. Hearing your favorite
song on the radio when you wake up in the morning can make a great start to
a day. Losing your contact down the bathroom sink? A bad day is on the
horizon.
If your day has started off with a “looks like someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed” frame of mind, don’t fret. There is still a way to turn your day around easily without losing it to the bad karma monsters. Start your morning off with a delicious breakfast. Fruit, yogurt, cereal, toast, bagels . . . take a few minutes out to sit with your family to eat and your day will most certainly start to turn around the right way. (Well, that is if no one spills their milk or empties a whole box of cereal onto the floor while pulling it down off of the pantry shelf.)
For an extra-special start to the day, I like to make breakfast pizza. If you are pressed for time, preparing it the night before and then baking it in the morning works out well. Guaranteed to turn any down in the dumps outlook into an optimistic frame of mind, this pizza is filling, flavorful, and very easy to put together. Fend off a bad day the right way with the right start. What a difference the right breakfast can make! Recipe after the jump . . .

For the Cake:
2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3 sticks unsalted butter at room temperature
2 cups sugar
6 large eggs
1 cup milk
2 TB lemon zest

Poke holes all over the cake with a wooden skewer.
Meanwhile, bring the lemon juice and remaining sugar to a boil over medium high heat in a small saucepan, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Invert the cake onto a rack, positioned over a baking sheet and slowly pour the syrup over the cake, it will seep through the holes and into the cake. Let cool to room temp.
For the lemon thyme strawberries:
4 cups sliced strawberries
1/2 cup chopped lemon thyme
2 Tb lemon juice
2 Tb sugar (that is plenty to release the strawberry juices and the cake being sweet you don't really need much more)
Mix all the ingredients together and let macerate at room temperature for 30 minutes. Refrigerate until ready to use. Bring back to room temp before serving.
