Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 large zucchini (or 2 medium)
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • 1/3 cup pizza sauce
  • 2/3 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1/3 cup mini pepperoni slices

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice the zucchini lengthwise and use a spoon to carefully scoop out the center to make a well, being careful not to go too close to the zucchini skin (it will become too flimsy if too much is removed).
  • Drizzle the cut sides of the zucchini boats with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper.
  • Roast the zucchini for 15-20 minutes or until it is tender.
  • Remove the zucchini from the oven and carefully blot the wells with a paper towel if there is a lot of moisture.
  • Spoon pizza sauce into each well (for large zucchinis, spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of sauce.)
  • Top with mozzarella cheese and mini pepperoni slices.
  • Bake in the oven for 5 or until the cheese has melted. Then broil for about 3 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly. [Keep an eye on them while they broil to ensure they don't burn.]
