Zucchini Pizza Bites

 

 

 

The beginning of September brings the start of a new season and as I flip the calendar, I look to change some eating habits that have gotten a little off track with summer vacations. Eating low carb can be difficult when constantly dining out and is much easier when I am at home and in a routine.

These Zucchini Pizza Bites are a great snack or even lunch and are quick and easy to make. The recipe is from one of my favorite go to sites when I am looking for a healthy, but delicious option; Skinnytaste.com. This site is full of low fat, low carb recipes, perfect for a healthy eating lifestyle. The blog author has her first cookbook coming out soon, I am planning on purchasing a few for Christmas gifts.

This recipe has three ingredients; zucchini, marinara sauce and fat free cheese and if you have zucchini to use from your garden, your shopping list is even shorter. I like to use a spicy marinara sauce, but you could sprinkle on a little pepper flakes, for the same effect. Enjoy!

Happy Wednesday!

  1. don't be afraid to use full fat cheese! Fats from cheese are not the enemy they've been demonized to be. :)

    Good concept recipe though!

  2. I read about these just a little bit ago and hurried to the kitchen to make them. I got out my George Foreman (haven't used this in quite a while) and sliced the zucchini. I didn't have any jarred marinara sauce...so I substituted some med. salsa. I topped them with a tiny slice of Muenster cheese. They were so good. I think pepper jack cheese would be good too. Thanks for the quick delicious recipe. I'm going to check out the place where you got the recipe.
