Zucchini Pizza

I've been lowering my carbs as we get closer to pool season. Although I've been wondering if this cold weather is ever going away?!  I don't mind ditching bread and sugar but there is one thing I definitely still crave and that's PIZZA.  So how can I make this without the dough???  My solution is zucchini and it works great!  Low carb, low calorie ...bring on the sunshine & bikinis because my belly will be ready! (well, as long as I don't eat all the homemade peanut butter eggs I just made for Easter)



INGREDIENTS (for one serving)
1 small to medium zucchini
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
3-4 teaspoons pizza sauce
1 mozzarella low fat string cheese stick, shredded (Or about 1 oz shredded mozzarella)
7 slices pepperoni cut in half

Preheat oven or toaster oven to 400'.  Slice the zucchini into three pieces lengthwise. Poke a few holes in the zucchini pieces with a fork and microwave for 1 1/2 minutes (90 seconds).  Remove from microwave and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Top each slice with pizza sauce then cheese and finally pepperoni.  Bake for about 5-8 minutes or until cheese melts. Enjoy!
