These Low Calorie Zucchini Pizza Bites are just 36 calories per serving and come with 3 different flavors (traditional, Alfredo, and pesto pizza flavors). The serving size is 4 pizza bites (which is equal to 1/2 a zucchini) and I based the nutrition off the highest calorie flavor. If you’re serving this as an appetizer, you’ll be pleased to know each zucchini pizza bite is just 9 calories. But I figured no one could eat just one.
