Craving pizza but you want to stay on track with healthy eating? This dish brings in all the wonderful flavors of your pizza but without the crust (and carbs). I also used my favorite marinara sauce to keep it low sugar too. You can adjust this recipe by adding in your favorite pizza toppings and make it dairy-free by omitting the cheese. Eating healthy doesn't mean you have to ditch your favorite foods, you just have to find the healthy versions!
