Fancy pizza but can’t have it since going low carb? Try these pepperoni pizza bites.
Pepperoni Pizza Bites
Enjoy all the flavour of pepperoni, tomato paste, cheese and tomatoes, or try your favourite topping. So instead of having the stodgy, wheat based pizza base, just load your toppings onto the pepperoni slices.
They are so filling, you will only want a few. We all know the topping of pizza is the best bit, so now you can have it, minus the carbs.
These are also great to put into lunch boxes for morning tea or a snack. Add some cream cheese and make a pepperoni sandwich. How about sliced mushrooms, feta cheese, blue cheese, olives, sundered tomatoes in oil?
Find good quality of pepperoni with no wheat or other fillers.

Hi there, I struggle with all the ‘crap’ in pepperoni / salami / chorizo. Are you able to tell me the best brands in your opinion ? Ps : Absolutely love your website – have been on a LCHF journey for about 2 years now and this is by far the best website I have found !!!!!!!

Wow Jane, that is the kindest feedback, how lovely of you. I get what you are saying about the ‘crap’ in pepperoni. I try to find ones which have the least preservatives and no colourings etc. At the moment I buy Otellos with no preservative, additives, no gluten just organic meat, herbs and spices.

i understand with the processes sausage. We buy fresh pork loins and do the rest by ourselves, You will need to stop at a butcher shop for the seasoning mix, we grind the meat then add the sausage mix to our heat tolerant level. i then form this mixture into small balls and brown them up. I usually do twenty pounds at a time and store in my freezer,
