Tomato & Chives Breakfast Pitas

Are you hungry for delicious and fresh breakfast ideas? You are in for a treat today! When we first starting thinking of moving to Florida, I had daydreams about what my mornings would be like. They would go a little something like this; I'd wake up for a glass of delicious fresh squeezed orange juice and follow it up with a little stroll in the morning sunshine.
While I may or may not be living that out now that we're here, there is one thing that's true. There is an abundance of fresh Florida produce available whether we're visiting a local farmer's market or even a local grocer. Being able to eat fresh and seasonal makes me feel great. We're finally able to eat within "nature's production cycle" which is just awesome. Plus, it can also help save money vs. purchasing produce that's out of season.
This time of the year Florida Tomatoes are perfect and ready to eat, so I wanted to come up with a way to enjoy them more. I thought a tasty breakfast idea would be in order. Anytime I serve up veggies at breakfast, I feel pretty amazing.
Here's how I made this scrumptious breakfast!
Florida Fresh Tomato & Chives Breakfast Pitas
This makes one breakfast pita. Double, triple, etc for multiple servings.
Ingredients needed:
-1 Medium Sized Wheat Pita
-¼ cup shredded sharp cheddar
-Two slices tomato halved
-Sprinkling of fresh chopped chives
-1 Egg
-salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place your pita bread on a non-stick baking tray. In a circle, place each of the four tomato slices. Sprinkle cheese in the center and spread out over tomatoes. Make a small hole in the middle of the pita and moving the cheese to the side. Crack the egg and carefully pour it into the hole you just made. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and then top with chives.
Bake for approximately 16 mins or until egg has cooked through. Cool a moment and then enjoy! Ooh it's good stuff!
Fresh From Florida produce is available at local stores, farmer's markets and restaurants. Keep an eye out for the Fresh From Florida logo when you're out and about and looking for in-season produce!

You've inspired me! I know what's for breakfast tomorrow morning and I just happen to have a couple of pitas! Thank you for sharing this idea at the Inspire Me Mondays Link-Up!
Yum! I can't wait until I can get fresh tomatoes from my garden so I can make this truly fresh.
Looks delicious!
These look delicious! This is something I would totally make for breakfast, yum!
This would make an amazing breakfast or lunch! My mouth is watering!
Oh Dawn, I could eat this right now. I'm going to make a list so I can make this next week. YUM.
I can not wait for fresh tomatoes to be in season! This looks so delicious that my mouth is watering!
Yum Yum! Looks terrific and tasty.
That's how you have breakfast in Florida? I'm clearly living in the wrong state!
Oh, YUM. These are the kinds of breakfasts I love. I'd probably eat it for dinner too 🙂
These look so delicious. I will have to make them this weekend for the kids. I am sure they will love them.
That looks really good Dawn! I pinned it on my breakfast board.
I AM DROOLING! I am forwarding this to my hubby for Sunday brunch! What a delicious idea!
Oh I love tomatoes on everything or even alone. I remember eating fresh tomato sandwiches at the farm, when I was a kid. Thanks for sharing.
I live in Miami and I love getting fresh produce from localized markets. They taste so much better than grocery store produce.
Yum, this is exactly what I love for breakfast! Pita pizzas are so darn good, and fresh tomatoes just make them better!
Yum!!! This looks so delicious! I'm saving this recipe for dinner one night this week!
Just for breakfast? Those sound like they would be good anytime! OMG, they sound amazing.
Wow! Those look really scrumptious! I will take some of them, please! Just kidding. But I would like to try them myself.
Those look FANTASTIC! And I love me tomatoes for my breakfast. I chop them up in my omelets all the time, but I love the way you added whole grains to this while keeping omelet elements pretty much 😉
That looks amazing! This would be perfect for brunch or a nice afternoon snack. Thanks!
