Pizza is definitely a kid favorite, but not usually a healthy one. My kids love our alternative, Meatza, but it is messy to make and takes multiple pans. I’m a huge fan of stir-frys and decided that the toppings of pizza would make a great stir fry. After a few tries, I finally have a recipe that I really like and that the kids seem to love. In fact, I had to make it twice to get a picture because they ate the first batch before I could photograph it!

Pizza Stir Fry: Easy Weeknight Meal

Stir frys of all types are one of my favorite types of meals to make. They are fast and easy to make, loaded with vegetables, and only dirty one pan. I have plenty of “normal” stir fry recipes in regular rotation, but this pizza stir fry is one of my more creative recipes. I promise… it really tastes like pizza!

I use Italian seasonings, Italian sausage, and uncured pepperoni and all the pizza vegetables — mushrooms, fresh spinach, black olives, onions, and bell peppers. I also toss in some diced zucchini. Feel free to use whatever combination of pizza veggies you like best.

I top each bowl with a couple spoonfuls of warmed pasta sauce or pizza sauce and a sprinkle of shredded mozzarella. You could even put the (oven-safe) bowls under the broiler for a few minutes to melt the cheese.

Other Ways to Serve Pizza Stir Fry

The Italian sausage in this stir fry makes it a surprisingly good breakfast as well as dinner. Or make a pizza omelet by using the stir fry as the omelet filling and topping with warmed pizza sauce and shredded mozzarella.

    I’ve been known to make a great pizza crust, and with part whole wheat flour I assumed it was healthier. Now that I’m grain free, I don’t have to miss out on that pizza taste anymore. Thanks for the recipe!

    I make stir fried pancakes for breakfast. I fry up some of our home grown turkey sausage. Add some butter to the pan. I add extra eggs to my pancake recipe and leave out any oil. When the butter is sizzling I pour in the batter. Let it cook until well set on the bottom then start gently turning it over and stirring until all of the bite sized pieces are lightly browned. Then I stir a little maple syrup in. If you put some Stevia in the batter you can get by with less syrup.
    This was especially nice when my children were all little, no cutting pancakes or pouring syrup and buttering at the table. It’s all done before it gets to the table.

    We enjoyed every bite of this recipe.. I have not been able to find a pizza dough I like or if it was one I liked, I had a reaction to an ingredient. I so don’t have to worry about that with this recipe. This may be a weekly meal.. at least for a while.. lol.. Thanks!!

    I made this last night and let me just say that it was stupid good! I altered it a bit to fit our taste, but WOWSERS. DH even loved it and he is a hardcore fanatic about having “real” pizza.

    Looks good!  I have absolutely never found nitrite-free pepperoni around here, though.  Is there a brand or link you could share?

      Applegate is a great brand and is sold in most health food stores and some grocery stores.  Check their website to see if there  is a store near you that carries it.

      Hi!  Hormel foods has a nitrite-free pepperoni.  It’s been pretty easy for me to find it in my local grocery store.  HTH!  ~Talya
