Pepperoni Pizza Zucchini Noodles

Seriously, this recipe for Pepperoni Pizza Zucchini Noodles were so flavorful and satisfying!

You won’t miss the pasta at all!

I have been on quite the kick lately trying to make some of my old favorites, but using low carb substitutes like cauliflower rice and zucchini noodles.

Gosh, being in your forties can be so adventurous đŸ˜‰ haha!

I was a bit scared to try zucchini noodles at first, but once I did I’ve not stopped coming up with new recipes for them.

A hand held spiralizer is what I use, it’s simple, small, and gets the job done.

How to make Pepperoni Pizza Zucchini Noodles

In a skillet over medium heat add some olive oil and a diced onion.

Let that cook for a few minutes.

Then add the spiralized zucchini along with some garlic, kosher salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.

After a few more minutes add some marinara sauce, sliced pepperoni, and Italian seasoning.

I cut the pepperoni in half because I find it’s easier to eat.

This is my Homemade Hidden Veggie Spaghetti Sauce.

I make it in huge batches and then freeze it in smaller containers.

If you have some homemade, that’s great.

If not any spaghetti sauce that you like will work just fine đŸ™‚
