High protein cottage cheese pizza bowl

Ingredients:

1 cup cottage cheese (blended until smooth)

1/4 cup pizza sauce or marinara sauce

1 tablespoon gluten-free flour or almond flour

1/4 cup chopped bell 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 turkey pepperoni slices

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 400F.

In an oven-safe bowl, combine cottage cheese, marinara sauce, almond flour, red bell peppers, red onion, black olives, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.

Level out the mixture and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.

Top up with pepperoni slices.

Bake in the oven for 5-8 minutes until the cheese melts, the sides of the container are bubbling, and the pepperoni crisps up.

Garnish with parmesan and basil before serving.

If you're looking for a nutritious and high-protein alternative to traditional pizza, the high protein cottage cheese pizza bowl is a fantastic option. Cottage cheese is an excellent source of protein and calcium, making it a great base for this recipe. Using almond flour or gluten-free flour helps keep the dish low-carb and suitable for gluten-sensitive individuals. The combination of pizza sauce or marinara sauce with Italian seasoning, oregano, and fresh vegetables like bell peppers and red onions creates a flavorful and satisfying meal. The addition of turkey pepperoni adds a delicious protein boost while keeping fat content lower than traditional pepperoni. Mozzarella cheese melts perfectly over the top, enhancing the pizza-like experience. Baking the mixture in an oven-safe bowl at 400°F for about 5-8 minutes allows the cheese to melt and the pepperoni to crisp, giving you the delightful textures you expect from pizza without the extra carbs from dough. Garnishing with parmesan and fresh basil adds a final touch of freshness and flavor. This pizza bowl is versatile — you can customize vegetables, switch to plant-based cheese options, or add herbs like basil or parsley to suit your taste. Ideal for meal prep, snacks, or light dinners, it's quick to prepare and offers a protein-packed snack that keeps you feeling full and energized. Plus, it’s a creative way to enjoy pizza flavors while sticking to your fitness goals or dietary preferences.
