Pepperoni Pizza Cups

                                               My kids LOVED these! One pizza cup is 15 carbs. 

Recipe from:  For the Love of Cooking.net

• Cooking spray
• 1 tube of refrigerator biscuits (I used reduced fat Grands)
• Pizza sauce
• Mozzarella cheese, diced or shredded
• Turkey pepperoni slices
• Parmesan Cheese, shredded
• Dried Basil

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Coat a muffin tin with cooking spray.

Cut each biscuit in half then press the dough into of the bottom and sides of the muffin tin. Repeat with the remaining dough. Spoon sauce into each cup. Place some diced (or shredded) mozzarella cheese into the cups followed by a few slices of pepperoni.

Finally add a bit more mozzarella if desired then sprinkle the tops with Parmesan cheese and dried oregano.

Place into the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese has melted. Serve immediately. Enjoy.

You can use canned pizza sauce or this homemade red sauce recipe that I use for my pizzas. I LOVE this sauce.
