Chorizo & Egg Flat Bread (Portuguese Breakfast Pizza)
Recipe: #24382
July 12, 2016
"Found @ portuguesedinerdotcom (aka Tia Maria's Blog for the Portuguese Foodie). Maria Dias is the co-author of TASTE PORTUGAL, 101 EASY PORTUGUESE RECIPES (Volume 1). Given that the Azorean Islands can boast about their thriving cheese production industry, I was surprised to note that this recipe uses shredded Cheddar cheese. In fact, after a careful search I found that nearly all of Maria's recipes w/cheese as an ingredient call for the Cheddar variety or "your favorite cheese". Maria describes her husband as a "chorizo-loving pizzaholic" so it's no surprise that this recipe would be among his favorites. Altho meant to be a breakfast pizza, I think this would also be an excellent 4-person starter course. (Times were not included & were estimated by me) ENJOY!"
