Instructions
Start by chopping your zucchini either by hand or with a chopper. Set aside.
Add some oil to a large pan on medium high heat (if using) then add in your meat of choice. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder and italian seasoning to taste and cook until your meat is almost cooked through (when there is no pink showing).
Next add in your chopped zucchini, season with some more salt, pepper, garlic powder and italian seasoning to taste and then let cook for 4-5 more minutes or until the zucchini begins to soften and cook through. Your meat should also be an internal temp of 160 F. Then add in your tomato sauce.
Remove the pan from heat, sprinkle on your shredded mozzarella or pepper jack, top with an even layer of turkey pepperoni and then broil your skillet for 1-2 minutes or until the cheese becomes bubbly with brown spots and your pepperoni is slightly crisped. Serve and Enjoy!
