Protein Packed Pizza Bowls! If you LOVE pizza but are looking for more protein… this is for you!
Ingredients:
1 lb lean ground turkey
½ Tbsp olive oil
¼ cup mushrooms, chopped
1 small Jalapeño, chopped
1 small green bell pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
¼ cup onion, diced
1 Tbsp tomato paste
½ tsp dried oregano
¼ tsp salt more as needed
½ tsp red pepper flakes
1½ cup marinara sauce
1 cup mozzarella, shredded more as needed
¼ cup organic pepperoni
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 450º. Chop mushrooms, jalapeño and bell peppers into bite sized pieces and set aside. Finely chop onion and mince garlic. In a large skillet, heat oil, add the ground meat. Cook for about 5 minutes, soak up any leftover grease or liquid with a paper towel. Add in seasonings, onion and garlic.
Once the onion starts to sweat, add in chopped mushrooms and peppers. Add seasonings and tomato paste. Mix well. Let the seasoning and tomato paste brown just a bit. Add in the marinara sauce.
Step Three. Once the marinara sauce begins to simmer a bit, continue to stir for another minute. Add equal amounts of the meat sauce mixture to oven safe bowls (20-25 oz bowls). If you don't have oven safe bowls, no worries use microwave safe bowls.
Cover the meat mixture with Mozzarella and top with pepperonis. Put bowls on a caking sheet and bake for about 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted, browned and bubbling. Or, you can cover them and pop them into the microwave for 1 minute or more until the cheese is melted.
Let the pizza bowls cool for a minute or two and serve in the bowls, once they are cooled and enjoy.
