Possible Ingredient Alternatives
Zucchini can be replaced with eggplant slices or portobello mushroom caps for a different texture and flavor profile. Both alternatives offer similar nutritional benefits and work well as low-carb pizza bases. Adjust cooking times as needed, as eggplant may require longer to soften.
Tomato marinara sauce can be substituted with pesto or a white pizza sauce for variety. These alternatives maintain the moisture and flavor function of the sauce while offering different taste experiences. Use the same amount as called for in the original recipe.
Mozzarella cheese can be swapped with dairy-free alternatives like vegan cheese shreds or nutritional yeast for those avoiding dairy. Vegan cheese can be used in equal amounts, while nutritional yeast should be sprinkled to taste, offering a cheesy flavor and B-vitamin boost. If using nutritional yeast, consider adding a small amount of olive oil for moisture.

Ingredients
- Non-stick cooking spray
- 1 medium zucchini
- Kosher salt
- 1/4 cup tomato marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
Step 1: Prepare the Baking Sheet
Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray it lightly with cooking spray to ensure that the zucchini slices do not stick during baking.
Step 2: Slice and Arrange the Zucchini
Slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick rounds, aiming for about 24 slices in total.
Arrange these slices evenly on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they don’t overlap.
Sprinkle the slices generously with kosher salt to enhance their natural flavor.
Step 3: Add Marinara and Cheese
On each zucchini slice, add 1/2 teaspoon of marinara sauce, spreading it gently over the surface.
Then, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce for a cheesy topping.
Step 4: Bake Until Bubbly
Place the baking sheet with the topped zucchini slices into the preheated oven.
Bake for approximately 8 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly.
Keep an eye on them to ensure they don’t overcook.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Once the zucchini rounds are ready, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly.
Serve these delicious zucchini bites as an appetizer or a healthy snack for any occasion.
