Low Carb Crustless Pizza Bowl Recipe

 Ingredients:

 

1/2 cup marinara sauce (low sugar)

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup sliced pepperoni or cooked sausage

1/4 cup chopped bell peppers

1/4 cup sliced mushrooms

1/4 cup chopped onions

1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional toppings: black olives, red pepper flakes, fresh basil

Preparation Steps:

 

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that your ingredients cook evenly and the cheese melts perfectly.

 

2. Choose Your Bowls: Select two oven-safe bowls or ramekins. Lightly grease them with non-stick spray or a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking.

 

 

3. Layer the Sauce: Add about 1/4 cup of marinara sauce to the bottom of each bowl. Spread it evenly to cover the base.

 

4. Add the Toppings: Start layering your favorite pizza toppings over the sauce. Distribute the chopped bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, and pepperoni or sausage evenly between the bowls.

 

5. Add the Cheese: Sprinkle mozzarella cheese generously over the top of each bowl, ensuring all the ingredients are covered. Then, add a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and a pinch of Italian seasoning. Add salt and pepper as desired.

 

6. Bake: Place the bowls on a baking sheet and transfer to the preheated oven. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden brown.

 

7. Serve: Carefully remove the bowls from the oven. Let them cool for a couple of minutes before serving. Garnish with optional toppings like olives, red pepper flakes, or fresh basil.
