Zucchini Pizza Bites

Preparation

1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
Wash and slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
3
Spread a small amount of tomato sauce evenly over each zucchini slice. Sprinkle with a pinch of dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
4
Top each sauce-covered zucchini slice with a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese. If using, add a few diced bell pepper pieces on top.
5
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender-crisp and the cheese is melted and bubbly. For extra crispiness, you can briefly broil for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
6
Remove from oven and serve hot. Enjoy your healthy pizza bites!
