This simple egg recipe is delicious and was my dad's idea. I ate it for dinner for a week—it's yummy, delicious, and low in calories.

Most cooks drop eggs into a cold pan and let the sauce scorch before the proteins set. Heat the oil in a cast-iron skillet until it shimmers at 375 degrees Fahrenheit before introducing any liquid. Pizza sauce contains concentrated tomato sugars that burn within seconds if the pan lacks adequate thermal momentum. Pour the sauce and eggs in rapidly to prevent localized boiling.
Stirring too early breaks the eggs into dry, chalky shreds rather than soft curds. Wait exactly forty-five seconds after the eggs hit the sauce before breaking the yolks. Overcooking destroys the moisture barrier between the eggs and the mozzarella, turning the cheese into an oily film.
This dish demands a sturdy vehicle to balance the acidity of the tomato base. Toast thick-cut sourdough bread to a deep golden brown to absorb the excess fat and olive oil. Pair the plate with a sharp arugula salad dressed simply in lemon juice to cut through the heavy sodium content of the processed cheese and olives.
