Ingredients
  

  • 2 ½ C Riced Cauliflower 8.8 oz
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 C Reduced-Fat Shredded Mozzarella 5 oz
  • 2 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese
  • ½ tsp Italian Seasoning
  • ⅛ tsp Salt
  • ¼ C Marinara Sauce (no sugar added) 2.5 oz
  • 20 pieces Turkey Pepperoni Slices 1.6 oz

Instructions
 

  • Preheat Oven to 400 °F
  • No need to pre-cook cauliflower. Blend it until it's fine if needed. prepackaged frozen riced cauliflower is usually fairly rough cut.
    2 ½ C Riced Cauliflower
  • To the cauliflower, add Eggs, 1/4 of the mozzarella (1.25 oz), parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and salt.
    2 Eggs, 1 C Reduced-Fat Shredded Mozzarella, 2 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese, ½ tsp Italian Seasoning, ⅛ tsp Salt
  • Divide mixture evenly into x12 spaces in regular sized muffin tin, or x30 spaces in a mini muffin tin. Press down with a spoon to create "cups."
  • Par-bake just these crusts for 20 minutes.
  • Mix together the remaining Mozzarella cheese (3.75 oz) and the Marinara sauce. This allows more even distribution to all the pizza bites.
    ¼ C Marinara Sauce (no sugar added), 1 C Reduced-Fat Shredded Mozzarella
  • Divide the pepperoni evenly amongst the muffins.
    20 pieces Turkey Pepperoni Slices
  • Bake for 5 to 7 minutes or until the cheese is melted to your satisfaction.
  • Enjoy!
