Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, combine hash browns, 2 eggs, and 1/2 cup cheddar and season with salt and pepper.

  2. Spray a baking sheet or pizza pan with cooking spray and add hash brown mixture. Using your hands, pat mixture into a circular crust.

  3. Bake until golden, 20 minutes.

  4. Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy, 6 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Drain, then crumble.

  5. Top baked crust with remaining 1 1/2 cups cheese and crack remaining 4 eggs on top. Scatter with crumbled bacon and season all over with salt and pepper.

  6. Bake until egg whites are set but yolks are runny, 15 minutes. (If you prefer a less runny yolk, bake 18 to 20 minutes.)

  7. Garnish with chives, slice, and serve.

Why this Cheesy Breakfast Pizza works for PCOS

Eating a substantial breakfast like this Cheesy Breakfast Pizza is one of the highest-leverage moves you can make for PCOS. In the Jakubowicz et al. 2013 trial published in Clinical Science, women with PCOS who front-loaded calories to breakfast reduced fasting insulin by 56% and increased ovulation rates 50%, with no change in total calories. Front-loading works because insulin sensitivity is highest in the morning and lowest at night.
