Are you craving something cheesy and savory without any of the guilt after eating? This low-carb one-pan pizza zoodle dish is sure to satisfy your cravings while packing a nutritional punch.
Zucchini noodles, or zoodles, as they’re more commonly known, are a keto staple and for a good reason. Zoodles works well as a noodle and carbohydrate replacement and complement well with tomato-based sauces. Zucchini is a vegetable known for its indistinct taste and light texture while also being high in fiber and water content.
Getting enough fiber in your diet is essential for healthy skin and digestion. Sometimes, including veggies in your dish is unpleasant due to their bland taste. However, this dish is so delicious and fun that you won’t even notice the high fiber content. Yes, this recipe is kid-friendly!
The zoodles are topped with traditional pizza toppings like tomato sauce, cheese, pepperoni, and basil. Mozzarella cheese is a favorite for this recipe as it tastes fantastic with tomato and basil while being super stretchy; however, feel free to add in any type of cheese you would like.
Besides adding that creamy, cheesy taste we all know and love, cheese is also high in calcium and good fats to keep our bones and teeth healthy while being lower in carbs.
Don’t forget to sprinkle on more cheese and some fresh basil before serving. You can also add salt and pepper to taste.
