Supreme Pizza Bowls

The Recipe: Supreme Pizza Bowls

The Base: 1 cup fresh baby spinach or sautéed mushrooms (to add volume).
The Sauce: 1/2 cup sugar-free marinara or pizza sauce.
The Cheese: 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese.
The Proteins: 1/4 cup pepperoni slices, 1/4 cup cooked Italian sausage crumbles.
The Veggies: 2 tbsp diced green bell peppers, 1 tbsp sliced black olives, 1 tbsp diced red onion.
The Finish: 1/2 tsp dried oregano, a pinch of red pepper flakes, and 1 tbsp grated Parmesan.

Prep the Oven: Preheat your oven (or air fryer) to 200°C (400°F).
Layer the Foundation: In two oven-safe ramekins or small bowls, place a layer of spinach at the bottom. This wilts down and mimics a “crust” layer.
Add the Sauce & Meat: Spoon half the pizza sauce over the spinach. Add your sausage crumbles and a few pepperoni slices.
The Cheese Blanket: Top each bowl generously with mozzarella cheese.
Add Toppings: Arrange the remaining pepperoni, peppers, onions, and olives on top of the cheese.
Bake: Place bowls on a baking sheet. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and starting to brown/bubble.
Garnish: Sprinkle with oregano, red pepper flakes, and Parmesan. Let sit for 2 minutes before eating (it’s molten hot!).

Drain Your Toppings: If using “wet” ingredients like canned mushrooms or pineapple (if that’s your thing), pat them dry first to avoid a soggy bowl.
The “Crispy Edge” Trick: Sprinkle a little Parmesan around the inside rim of the bowl before baking; it creates a salty, crispy crust effect.
Air Fryer Version: You can air fry these at 190°C for about 6–8 minutes.

Estimate based on standard ingredients:

Keto-Friendly: Keeps you in ketosis by eliminating the flour-based crust.
High Protein: Helps with satiety, making you feel full longer than a bread-heavy meal.
Low Prep: No kneading, rising, or rolling dough. It’s the ultimate “lazy” gourmet meal.
