Zucchini Pizza Bites:  

•            1.5 lb. Zucchini (sliced into 1/4-inch thick circles)

•            1 tbsp Avocado oil

•            1/2 tsp Sea salt

•            1/4 tsp Black pepper

•            2/3 cup Marinara sauce

•            1 1/2 cups Mozzarella cheese (shredded)

•            1 tsp Italian seasoning (optional)

•            1.5 oz Pepperoni slices (cut into eighths or small pieces)

Directions:  Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C).  Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Arrange zucchini slices in a single layer on the sheet. Spray with avocado oil spray and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper.  Bake for about 5 minutes, until zucchini just barely starts to soften. Top each zucchini slice with 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon marinara sauce, 1/2 tablespoon mozzarella cheese, a sprinkle of Italian seasoning, and 3-4 pepperoni quarter-slices.  Bake for 8-10 minutes, until cheese is melted, and zucchini is soft.  Turn on the broiler. Place the pans closer to the broiler and broil for 1-3 minutes, until cheese is browned.
