Oregon State says these are good for kids, but I say they are good for anybody who wants easy quick pizza without the carbs. If you are on a strict ketogenic plan, either minimize the pasta sauce or replace it with fresh chopped tomatoes. Use more zucchini and/or less cheese if you want to make this even healthier.

Ingredients
2 medium or 3 small zucchini
1⁄2 cup tomato based pasta sauce
1⁄2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 Tablespoons parmesan cheese
Directions
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Wash zucchini. Trim ends and cut each in half lengthwise. Use a spoon to gently scrape out soft, seedy center of zucchini.
- Place zucchini halves in a small baking dish. Spoon pasta sauce into zucchini halves. Top with mozzarella and parmesan cheeses.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until zucchini can be pierced with a fork and cheese is bubbly and brown. Serve warm.
