Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 1 cup cottage cheese blended until smooth
  • 1/4 cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce
  • 1 tablespoon gluten-free flour or almond flour
Toppings
  • 1/4 cup chopped peppers any color
  • 1/8 cup sliced red onions
  • 1/8 cup chopped black olives
  • 1 teaspoon oregano or Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup light mozzarella cheese
  • 4-5 slices turkey pepperoni
  • Salt & black pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. Blend the cottage cheese until completely smooth.
  3. In an oven-safe bowl, combine the blended cottage cheese, pizza sauce, gluten-free flour, chopped peppers, sliced onions, chopped olives, oregano, salt, and black pepper until everything is well mixed.
Baking
  1. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top of the mixture and arrange turkey pepperoni slices over it.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is melted, bubbling, and the pepperoni is crispy.
  3. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese before serving for that extra touch.

Notes

Feel free to substitute the cheese with a dairy-free alternative to make it vegan or swap turkey pepperoni for regular pepperoni. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days.
