Tips for making this easy pizza bowls recipe:
- Any ground meat will essentially work for this yummy idea. Next time I am going to try this with ground chicken or ground beef for variation in the protein.
- This would be a great low-carb meal prep idea for weekday lunches or dinners. Have the veggies and meat mixture cooked and build a bowl during the week!
- I used the large slices of Boar’s Head pepperoni, but feel free to use the smaller-sized ones instead!
Yum! This tastes like a crustless pizza, and I am here for it!
I love that you can customize your bowl with veggies and odds and ends from your fridge. Next time I may add some feta cheese or jalapenos. This is honestly one of the best and easiest meals I have fixed in a while!
