Low-Carb Cheesy Pizza Bowls
Savor the creamy, zesty flavors of these quick, satisfying pizza bowls!
Equipment
- Oven-safe ramekins
- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
Cheeses
- 1 cup cottage cheese full-fat or low-fat, your choice
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Other Ingredients
- 1/3 cup low-sugar marinara sauce
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes optional
- 12 mini pepperoni slices or 6 regular, chopped
- Olive oil spray for greasing ramekins
Instructions
- Get Ready: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray two oven-safe ramekins or small bowls with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Mix It Up: In a medium bowl, gently combine the cottage cheese, half of the shredded mozzarella, all of the parmesan cheese, dried oregano, and garlic powder. If you enjoy a little heat, mix in the crushed red pepper flakes now.
- Build Your Bowl: Divide the cheesy cottage cheese mixture evenly between the two prepared ramekins, forming a base for your pizza.
- Top It Off: Spoon the low-sugar marinara sauce over the cheese mixture in each ramekin. Then, sprinkle the remaining shredded mozzarella on top and arrange the pepperoni slices neatly.
- Bake to Perfection: Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is beautifully melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown. Let cool for a few minutes before enjoying your healthy, personal pizza!
Notes
