I know you just totally saw me make that recipe and thought; what about regular pizza? Let’s get one thing straight; I’m not abandoning our longtime friend pizza. I believe in enjoying the cheesy saucy goodness with a perfectly crispy golden crust now and then. I mean, have you seen my Cobb Salad Pizza? or my beloved Taco Pizza? Exactly.

I’m sure the kids would love to eat either of those every night, but when it comes to eating their veggies, I have to get a bit more creative. And by creative, I mean using them in this like this low carb zucchini pizza bites or even my Bell Pepper Nachos!

These low carb zucchini pizza bites are also keto friendly. And let me tell you that for the months that I took my low carb lifestyle to a keto level, these came to the rescue at the perfect time! It was one meal that I could eat and enjoy with my family -all under the disguise of pizza night!

It’s another one of my favorite ways to use zucchini which I have in abundance this time of year thanks to the endless supply from my parent’s garden.

Sometimes I’ll spiralize the zucchini to make Low Carb Ramen or as a delicious pasta-like side dish with my Parmesan Zucchini and Tomatoes or served along with my Baked Honey Salmon.

And for a savory twist, I’ll whip up a batch of zucchini waffles, they’re literally golden-crisp, cheesy waffles (another favorite).

Can you freeze these zucchini pizza bites you ask? Sadly, no. Zucchini holds a lot of water and they don’t thaw out well. Leftovers, however, can be reheated in the microwave or oven -but I’ve never heard of such thing.

Sometimes, the simplest recipes are all the rave and this one is a winner for the books. All you have to do is top-sliced zucchini with sauce, cheese, and pepperoni, place in the oven and ta-da! In less than ten minutes dinner or lunch is ready! Yes, these are perfectly portable in a lunchbox for school or the office. I send them at room temperature inside a lunchbox.

Everything you love about pizza and zucchini in a low carb version. What are some of your favorite fun ways to incorporate more veggies into your meals?
