So, Mr. Sidewalk Shoes went on a business trip to Seattle. I was already feeling sorry for myself enough, just imaging the dinners in some charming Seattle brew pub. So, even though I am tempted to get lazy when just cooking for myself and calling a big bowl of popcorn dinner (not that there is anything wrong with that), I wanted to eat good too.
I looked for things that could be made for one without too much muss or fuss or leftovers.
I saw this Crispy Breakfast Pita in Weeknights with Giada: Quick and Simple Recipes to Revamp Dinner
- it looked like exactly what I was looking for.
OMG. This was wonderful. Of course anything topped with a fried egg is good, just ask Larry. This was absolutely perfect. So good and so easy. It was so good I made it the next day too. And since I still had all of the ingredients, I made it for Mr. Sidewalk Shoes for lunch after he returned from his week in Seattle, because I am amazingly kind and generous. Unlike someone who didn’t bring me back anything from Seattle.
I found the recipe online for you: Crispy Breakfast Pita. Make it. Really.
This will be my entry for Foodie Friday at Designs by Gollum!

Fried egg on top, sign me up!
Dee Dee (My Midlife Kitchen) says
Oh yeah, anything with a fried egg on top is an A+ in my book. I've done versions of this and they're always good. My hubby is having minor surgery next week, so easy meals are going to be a necessity for awhile. This one fits the bill! Thanks!

You are indeed kind and generous for preparing this as a welcome-home lunch--I would love to return home to this kind of meal, breakfast, lunch or dinner! Anything with an egg on top is a winner!
Amanda @ Cookie Named Desire says
Uh oh. Looks like someone owes you a trip to Seattle (make it in June cause I'll be there!) This is the perfect meal for one. It is definitely one of those recipes you want to keep in rotation and have over and over again. Yum!
Joy @ Joy Love Food says
Yum, I wish I was having this for breakfast this morning!
Marye says
I hardly ever take even a minute to make myself breakfast unless it's for a shoot and then I eat it cold. Pitiful. This sounds really REALLY good.
Karen @ Karen's Kitchen Stories says
You ARE amazingly kind and generous =) Your dish looks so delicious!
Kristen @ A Mind Full Mom says
I am with you! I could eat this ANYTIME of the day!
Pam Greer says

I haven't had a breakfast pita before but I want to now. Everything about this one looks good to me except the invisible bacon 😉

Joanne says
I love anything topped with a fried egg!! This sounds perfect for a low-key dinner one night!
Kim says
This dish has always appealed to me when I'm flipping through the book. Definitely going to give it a try..hopefully soon!
Amy says
I am an absolute sucker for a runny egg...
June says
Gosh darn it, the Mister's got some serious making up to do...I mean, he could have brought you back a cookbook like my Big Guy does whenever he travels (rub it in!!!). Anyway, we'll soon be close enough to Seattle you can come visit for yourself. That'll teach him.
Big Dude says
Looks like you treated yourself well Pam.
