- 2 small zucchini sliced into rounds, skin on
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese grated
- 1-2 mini pepperoni per pizza bite
Preheat the oven to 450 then line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Wash the zucchini, trim the ends then cut into 1/4" thick rounds leaving the skin on. Transfer the zucchini to the prepared baking sheet then lightly season with salt.
Add about 1 rounded teaspoon of pizza sauce to each zucchini round then top with a sprinkle of cheese and 1-2 pepperoni. The amount of sauce, cheese and pepperoni will vary depending upon the size of the zucchini bites.
Bake 6-8 minutes or until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is gooey and melted then broil about 1 minute to lightly brown the cheese. Optional: sprinkle with sliced basil. Serve right away.
