Weight Watchers Breakfast Pizza Cups Recipe

I was provided with a free one month subscription to Weight Watchers to try their new Simple Start plan to write about my experience.  I was compensated for my time and commitment, all views, positive and negative, are my own.

Since the holidays, I've been really struggling to get back on track with my eating. The first thing that needed to happen for me was to get honest with myself. So, last week, I spilled my guts about the top lies I tell myself about my diet. It's a list of things that work as a way to avoid getting on track to temporarily make me feel better. Confessions ranged from drinking way too much coffee even though it makes me feel like crap to telling myself it's okay. Getting that off my chest, really helped me set my priorities in order. Well, that and the chance to try the Simple Start plan from Weight Watchers which is an easy plan to follow for getting on track.

Challenge:  Finding Foods That The Whole Family Will Enjoy

Over the last week, I spent some time going through the recipes to see which ones would work for me. One of my biggest challenges has always been incorporating a good eating plan for myself while still feeding my family things that they will enjoy. That is an area that I usually fail in miserably, which usually leads to my demise since I am the one that prepares the majority of meals. What I'm learning is that many of the foods on the Simple Start plan are foods that we do in fact enjoy already... they are just made a little differently. Then, in some cases, I realized that making a simple edit or addition for my hubby and son would work. For example, I made the Simple Start recipe for Homemade Vegetable Soup which is mainly veggies and some whole wheat pasta. I made a huge batch, then divided it. I added some lean ground beef to theirs and stored mine as is.  I was pleasantly surprised that they both really love the soup. That one experiment alone gave me the confidence that this could totally work out for me.

Another recipe that I tried was the Breakfast Pizza. Simple concept and so easy to make. I made a fun little tweak to the recipe to make it more fun and family friendly by baking the English Muffin base into a cup. I'll be sharing that recipe below. But, just for fun, my son and I put a little video together about trying these, check it out for a giggle:

So are you ready to try something new and tasty? I highly recommend trying these Weight Watchers Simple Start Breakfast Pizza in cup form. Nom, nom! If you are following their points, the serving is only 6 points.  You can also add what they call "Flavor Boosts" such as chopped fresh basil or parsley, garlic powder and/or Italian seasoning to change it up. Yum.

  1. I do not work in the breakfast department. This sounds good but I think lunch would be more likely for me to get it done. Any ideas for breakfast that has pre-make parts for the night before?

  2. These look so yummy! I am going to have to make these. My kids and I love to have breakfast for dinner and I know they would "eat these up". Thanks 🙂

  3. The breakfast pizza sounds interesting. Would I wonder if it would be too many calories to have pizza sauce instead of tomato slices? I can do sauce, but not actual tomato bits and pieces, so slices don't work. Hmmm. I haven't done weight watchers in years, the last time I did a mess up in my coffee order from Starbucks resulted in my not having any points left for my day! D:

  4. The breakfast pizza and soup look really good! I'm finding that planning my meals for the week takes away the temptation to stray from a proper eating plan. Hopefully Simple Start works well for you!

  5. Weight Watchers really have it down to a science. I love the breakfast pizza cups you made... plus they look easy to make too.

  6. This looks so good that I will try. I think you don't need to be dieting to cook something like this. Healthy and looks great. Thanks for the resource.

  7. Until i experience i may not agree with you. So the next step is to make my wife believe this and practice for next two weeks, I may come back if it worked for us.

  8. Sounds tasty! I pretty much had the same thing for breakfast. Weight Watchers program is pretty good. I can't afford it though. 🙂

  9. I am a big weight watchers fan.. its the only diet that i can lose weight on.. Pizza is probably my favorite food, so adding it to breakfast would work great for me..

  10. That sounds like an awesome way to start the day. I am so bad about eating breakfast, too, but I would love one of these!!

  11. I have never tried these before but it looks so good, maybe I need to try out weight watchers, it looks like would would enjoy it

  12. These are great!! I enjoyed making these, and enjoyed eating them even more! My husband loved them as well. My 2-year-old wasn't so sure about it at first, but once I got him to try it he ate it right up!

  13. You are my hero! This would be a perfect recipe for me since I have been looking around for healthy alternatives since I have been quite a health conscious this year 🙂 Thank you!

  14. WOW!! That looks so good, its hard to believe its on weight watchers!!! I too am eating better this year! Trying to cut out sugar and increase veggies and water!

  15. I agree that trying to eat one way and the family that protests and wants other types of food is a major challenge. It is also unmotivating to make a fuss for just one person. Convenience seems to win.

  16. This looks yummy. Bummer that no one around here likes eggs though. We could probably eliminate them though...

  17. I would love to try this for breakfast! I have been wanting to start dieting for awhile but have been discouraged. This looks quick and easy! thanks 🙂

  18. While this recipe looks great, my wife would not like the tomato, so I'd have to find a substitute.

    Me, personally, I'd also add some green peppers & diced onion.
