I love these for lunch. Its been a struggle to get in the regular habit of eating lunch because its easier to snack out my hunger while chasing my three little ones. But these are fast and, coupled with a salad, filling too. Top with any SBD legal ingredients, like turkey pepperoni or olives and peppers in addition to the cheese, just like you would pizza!
This recipe was originally found at Gina's Skinny Recipes.
4 slices large zucchini, 1/4 inch think
Spray cooking spray, I like olive oil
2 tbsp pizza or spaghetti sauce*
1/4 c part skim mozzarella
salt and pepper
Cut zucchini about 1/4 inch thick. Spray both side lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil or grill for about 2 minutes on each side. Top with sauce and cheese and broil for an additional minute or two.
* Make sure if you use pre-made pizza or spaghetti sauce that it contains no hidden sugars, like high fructose corn syrup. Or you can make your own SBD legal sauce:
1 can tomato sauce
1 tbsp italian or pizza seasoning
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp dried mined onion (or 2 tbsp minced fresh onion)
1 tbsp no-calorie sweetener, or to taste
salt and pepper
Combine all ingredients in a small sauce pan or pot. Over medium heat, let simmer for about 15 - 20 minutes. Store unused sauce in the fridge for later use.
