How to Make Low Carb Crustless Pizza Bowl
Step 1: Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2: Cook the Sausage
In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground Italian sausage until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat.
Step 3: Sauté the Vegetables
Add the sliced bell peppers and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.
Step 4: Add Sauce and Seasoning
Stir in the sugar-free marinara sauce, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using). Simmer for 2–3 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
Step 5: Assemble the Bowls
Evenly divide the sausage and vegetable mixture among four oven-safe bowls.
Step 6: Add Cheese and Olives
Top each bowl with shredded mozzarella cheese and sliced black olives.
Step 7: Bake
Place the bowls on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10–15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Step 8: Garnish and Serve
Remove from the oven and let the bowls cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and serve warm.
