Main Ingredients
  • 1 medium zucchini cut into 0.25 inch thick slices

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat broiler to high and position oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  3. Lightly spray both sides of the zucchini slices with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Broil for 2-3 minutes per side, or until lightly golden and slightly softened. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  5. Remove from oven and top each zucchini slice with a small amount of marinara sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese.
  6. Return to the oven and broil for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Again, watch closely to avoid burning.
  7. Serve immediately.

Notes

These zucchini pizza bites are a fantastic way to use up extra zucchini. For a vegetarian option, ensure your marinara sauce does not contain meat products. You can also add other toppings like mini pepperoni or chopped herbs before broiling the cheese.
