Recipe and Photos by Caitlin Levin
Caitlin Levin is a chef and a food stylist and also happens to be one of my best friends. I’m welcoming her as a new columnist here–she will be sharing yummies with *all of us* a few times a month (she’s been sharing yummies with me since 1999!)
We are calling the column Mangiona because she and I met on our year abroad in Italy. The word Mangione translates to the female form of ‘big eater’ in Italian–something that I have been called on more than one occasion–especially when Caitlin’s cooking is involved 
I hope you enjoy the recipes–we will focus on easy, healthy mostly vegetarian fair around here–cause that’s just my steeze! I’m already craving this l’il snack–and Caits knows I need my Omega 3′s and proteins right now, so this breaky is right up my pregnant lady ally!
Please help me in giving Caitlin a very warm welcome.
Take it away Caits!:
Quick, healthy and easy snacks is my starting point this week….
Avo + Egg Brakfast Pizza
Here’s what you’ll need:
1. Greek or pocketless pita, or any kind of flat bread
2. Lemon
3. Ripe avocado
4. Organic egg
5. Sea salt, pepper, chili flakes, cumin, cumin seed, extra virgin olive oil
Here’s what you do:
Toast pita until crisp, mash avocado and spread on pita, drizzle with a dash of lemon, olive oil and spices, place egg cooked to your liking on top and serve.
Best as healthy breakfast, afternoon snack or Sunday night dinner!
Add prosciutto or a sprinkling of feta over the top for a richer snack.
Yummy recipe. Keep ‘em coming!
Yay! So happy to see Caitlin’s concoctions here! This looks yummy. Lovemesome quick and easy breakfast! I’m makin’ it!
Morning girls! Welcome, Caits!!! I can’t believe how good this looks! (as I sit at my desk and eat an apple for breakfast). Whoa! I’m definitely making this next chance I get! Love this, my sweet Mangionas! Xo, s
Looks spectacular! Thank you for sharing and inspiring!

OH MY GOD this looks so good!!!! Must try with Naan bread!
You need to rename this the Avo and Ova breakfast pizza!
My Husband said the same thing when he saw this! ha! Great minds…
Nice!
Genius!
This is definitely on the menu over the Easter break.
Looks tasty do you know how many calories are in it?
Any suggestions on a good veggie or fruit with which to top it?
Well, salsa is an obvious one, but I did try it with some fresh arugula on top and that was pretty good.
This looks simply amazing! A friend of mine tried it already and linked several of us up to you. Can’t WAIT to try it!
nom nom – can´t wait to eat this!
Two of my all-time favourite ingredients as a pizza? What a fab idea! I love sunny side up and a good ripe avocado…it’d be great with a freshly baked flatbread I’m thinking..that’s my next aim: to be able to make a super aromatic flatbread for general snacking purposes. LOVE – yummm!
Whoa! First, this pizza looks delish – two of my favorite things, avocado and pizza, there’s no way this could be bad! Second, Justina, did you make the graphic for this post? Whoever did it, they used my font! I am very new to blogging and creating, so when I made and shared a on my blog and with dafont.com, I had no idea that people would actually use it! I follow Joanna Goddard’s blog, A Cup of Jo, and when I clicked the link to come to this post, I almost fell out of my chair when I saw my font on your page! So far, I’ve only ever seen my font on my own stuff and other teachers’ creations, so that’s why I was so surprised to see it being used elsewhere! I’m so glad I clicked on the link, not only because I now have that recipe, but it really made my day to see my handwriting actually being used and then for me to stumble upon it, that’s crazy! Probably not a big deal for most people, but it felt really awesome to me!

Hey Katherine! I LOVED reading your comment–I know that feeling of stumbling upon something that you’ve created–what a rush! I LOVE your font and plant to use it for the branding of this whole ‘Mangione’ series (that yes, I did design the layout of). Thanks again for stopping by and for the font!!
I’ve kind of made this twice now. The first time using a no yeast pizza dough recipe I have for the base. The second time using a Texas Style Tortilla recipe. Both worked well for the bottom.
Then making a guacamole with seasoning and tomatoes inside. Then some smoked salmon slices and feta with the fried egg on top. It’s really good and thanks for the idea that has launched this wonderful “Tortizza” my husband and I now love.
Gorgeous! Quick random question–what is the font that you used on top of the pictures?

The font is called PlainPrint and you can get it for free on Dafont.com
This looks like absolute perfection.
I have eaten this three times since I saw it on pinterest. Thank you!!
This is too easy to prepare. It looks so yummy and mouthwatering too. This is the first time I had attracted such kind of recipe.
Aloha-
Love your blog!
I blog at thegrommom.com, and I am doing a few features on avocados (which we raise here in Hawaii.) I came across this recipe and wanted to ask your permission to share a photo with a link back to your site.
Please let me know if that would be ok.
Thanks!!
See ya round-
@Monica – Sure! Thanks for asking!
Hiya! I can see the fact that you really understand what you are writing about. Do you have a special education which is associated with the theme of this entry? Waiting forward to hear from you.
I wish this would stop rolling up on my vegetarian meal ideas app, as eggs are quite distinctly not vegetarian. Eating chicken embryo is no better than veal or suckling pig. Tut tut. Perhaps a lovely omnivore meal, but has no business masquerading as vegetarian, nor do folks who eat eggs. It’s like Jews celebrating Christmas. Nonsense.
Dear anon–I don’t know how or why this appears on your veggie meal ideas app– I sure didn’t put it there, and I never claimed this meal was vegetarian, either. so tut tut on that, and please take your holier-than-thou attitude elsewhere. Thanks!

Hey there this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding knowledge so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Avocados are commercially valuable and are cultivated in tropical and Mediterranean climates throughout the world. They have a green-skinned, fleshy body that may be pear-shaped, egg-shaped, or spherical. Commercially, it ripens after harvesting. Trees are partially self-pollinating and often are propagated through grafting to maintain a predictable quality and quantity of the fruit.`

Breakfast foods vary widely from place to place, but often include a carbohydrate such as grains or cereals, fruit and/or vegetables, a protein food such as eggs, meat or fish, and a beverage such as tea, coffee or fruit juice. Coffee, tea, juice, breakfast cereals, pancakes, sausages, bacon, sweet breads, fresh fruit, vegetables, eggs, mushrooms, baked beans, muffins, crumpets and toast with butter or margarine and/or jam or marmalade are common examples of breakfast foods, though a large range of preparations and ingredients are associated with breakfast globally.”
