Ingredients
1 cup low sugar marinara or pizza sauce
1 cup cooked Italian sausage or ground beef
½ cup sliced pepperoni
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup chopped bell peppers
¼ cup sliced black olives
¼ cup diced red onion
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh basil or parsley for garnish
Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the ingredients. Pre-cook the sausage or ground beef in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it apart and browning until fully cooked. Season with a little salt and pepper if needed.
2️⃣ Assemble the bowls. In individual oven-safe ramekins or small bowls, layer a spoonful of marinara sauce at the bottom. Add a scoop of cooked meat, followed by a handful of vegetables and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning.
3️⃣ Add the cheese and toppings. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese and your favorite pizza toppings like pepperoni, olives, and more veggies.
4️⃣ Bake. Place the bowls on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Broil for the last 1 to 2 minutes if you want a golden top.
5️⃣ Serve. Remove from the oven carefully, garnish with fresh basil or parsley, and serve hot.
Notes
These pizza bowls are endlessly customizable—use cooked chicken, mushrooms, spinach, or whatever pizza toppings you like. For extra creaminess, mix a spoonful of ricotta or cream cheese into the meat layer. Great for meal prep: assemble ahead and bake when ready to eat.
