Prep Time 10 mins

Cook Time 20 mins

Total Time 30 mins

Servings 2-3 bowls

Ingredients

• 1 lb lean ground beef, Italian sausage, or turkey
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms
• 1 green bell pepper, diced
• 1 cup low-carb marinara or pizza sauce (sugar-free)
• 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni slices
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Optional toppings: sliced black olives, oregano, or fresh parsley

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease individual oven-safe baking bowls or a medium casserole dish.
2. Cook the Meat: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook your ground beef (or Italian sausage) along with the diced onions until fully browned. Drain any excess grease.
3. Add Vegetables: Toss in the sliced mushrooms and diced green bell peppers. Sauté for another 3–4 minutes until the vegetables start to soften. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
4. Mix in Sauce: Stir the low-carb marinara/pizza sauce directly into the meat and vegetable mixture until everything is thoroughly coated and heated through.
5. Layer the Bowls: Spoon the meat and sauce mixture evenly into your prepared baking bowls.
6. Add Cheese and Toppings: Generously top each bowl with shredded mozzarella cheese, followed by a layer of pepperoni slices and any other desired toppings (like black olives).
7. Bake: Place the bowls into the preheated oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown on top.
8. Serve: Carefully remove from the oven (the bowls will be very hot!), garnish with a sprinkle of dried oregano or fresh parsley, and enjoy!
