These low carb eggplant Pizzas are perfect little bite sized appetizers to serve to a group. They're really easy to make, just pre roast the eggplant, add toppings, and bake again. I'm keeping it simple here with just a topping of Simple Pasta Sauce, shredded mozzarella, and dried oregano, but you can add any other toppings you desire! I'll be making this alongside a Home Oven Baked Pizza for pizza night in my house for now on

ROASTED EGGPLANT
- 2 medium (670 g) Eggplant
- 1 tbsp (15 g) Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp (6 g) Salt
- 1 tsp (3 g) Black pepper, ground

PIZZA TOPPINGS
- 1 cup (240 g) Simple pasta sauce
- 3/4 cup + 2tbsp, 3.5 oz (100 g) Shredded mozzarella cheese, low moisture part skim
- 1/2 tbsp (1.5 g) Oregano, dried

1. Preheat your oven to 425F, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut your eggplant into 1/2" rounds, and add to the sheet. Season with salt, pepper, and oil, and roast for 15 minutes, until softened and lightly browned. You may have to cook them in 2 batches

2. Remove the eggplant from the oven, and top each pizza with sauce, cheese, and a dash of oregano

3. Bake for another 10 minutes, or until browned to your liking. You can also broil the top for a minute to brown the cheese

4. I've marked this recipe as having 36 servings since I ended up with 36 mini pizzas, meaning the nutrition facts are for each individual pizza. Realistically though, this should serve about 6 people as a side
