KETO PIZZA CASSEROLE

KETO PIZZA CASSEROLE

Spotted some shiritaki penne on sale at Holland and Barrett the other day so I bought 4 packages and knew I had to make a pizza casserole with it. I've been craving pizza so bad and while I know I can make a pizza crust, I was too lazy.

So if you haven't had shiritaki noodles, it's either a hit or a miss. Some people love them, others hate them. The trick is to RINSE RINSE RINSE. They will come out of the package smelling like death but throw them all into a colander, and rinse for 2-3 minutes until the smell goes away.

IF you don't want to use shiritaki noodles, you can definitely replace them with cauliflower, zucchini noodles, spaghetti squash or a mix of all three! Just keep in mind, the carbs will be higher when you use vegetables.

Oh and here's a quick tip to make some good tomato sauce that you KNOW has NO added sugars. Because I didn't have any tomato sauce, I pulled out a can of tomato paste instead and added 5 tbsp of water to a can of paste. This will give it the consistency of sauce and you can add any extra herbs and spices you want.

What you will need:

4 packages (800g) shiritaki penne
1 small onion - chopped
1 full pepper (or 160g of mixed) - chopped
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp parsley
1 tsp paprika
160g sliced pepperoni
1 cup (236ml) tomato sauce - no sugar added
2 cups (200g) mozzarella cheese

Spread your noodles around a casserole dish. Mix in the veggies, spices, tomato sauce, half the mozzarella cheese & pepperoni.

Place another layer of cheese on top, followed by the rest of the pepperoni.

Bake at 375°F / 190°C for 25 minutes or until the cheese on top has browned.

Take out and serve!

This makes roughly 6 servings.

The shiritaki is the scary part of the recipe. It could give you a nasty surprise in the washroom....

How come we never get to see your beautiful face talking any more? I can't get those noodles in my local store, only the regular spaghetti noodles. Thanks for the recipe though.
