Easy Zucchini Pizza Bites Recipe Low Carb

If you have too many zucchini plants ripe at the same time, try these easy zucchini pizza bites.  It's the perfect low carb snack or dinner, and you can easily make them keto friendly by using the right sauce.

Zucchini season is upon us.  This is the time when you may wake up to find a pile of zucchini on your porch because your neighbors are so desperate to get rid of it.  

Personally, I prefer fried zucchini.  I have a great way to make it, and I'll share it hopefully this year.  The kids, of course, perfect zucchini bread.



We do all likes this easy zucchini bites recipe.  It's low carb and easy to make keto friendly.  You can customize it, and the kids even get to make their own.  

We don't usually do this for dinner.  Instead, we have it as an afternoon snack.  Sometimes I make them as a side dish when we have fried zucchini because the kids don't like fried zucchini.

These are easy to customize too.  You can use bigger slices and add more toppings like mushrooms or green peppers.

When to Pick Zucchini


Zucchini is ready to harvest about 45 to 55 days after you plant.  You'll notice some blooms.  Zucchini likes to hide under the big leaves, so be sure to look down close to the ground for ripe ones.

Zucchini is the most tender and has the most flavor when it's about 6 inches long, so try to pick it then.

If you do find one that got away, you can still use it.  I usually use the larger ones for zucchini bread after I cut out the seeds.

You can also use these to make zucchini boats.  

After you pick your zucchini, store in the fridge for a few days until you're ready to use them.
