You folks trying to manage a low carb lifestyle with little ones about have my total respect. I’ve been there, man.
In my early twenties, I had THREE littles under the age of five! What’s more, my husband and I both worked full time.
I’ll never forget dragging home after work, running on nothing but steam to collapse onto the couch. After a quick breather, my husband and I would scan one another’s faces, trying to decide who was the least exhausted. Whomever had the most energy was elected to find something–anything–to feed the kids. So yeah, I know how hard it can be.
If you’ve got littles about, maybe this drop-dead simple, kid-friendly recipe idea can help make a tired weeknight easier.
But if the kids are big enough to need help with math homework, I’m not your gal! 😀 You’d be far better off reaching out to today’s sponsor.

Pro tip: You can always make the chaffles ahead of time, and either toss them in the fridge for a few days or just freeze them to make this quick recipe even quicker. I won’t mind if you don’t thank me for this idea, though. You’re probably too tired!

✏ What’s in This Thing
7 Chaffles
10 1/2 tablespoons Spaghetti Sauce (Rao’s or another low sugar sauce)
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella
35 pepperoni slices (or whatever pizza toppings)
⚡ Making This Thing
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Spread out your chaffles in a casserole dish or on a cookie sheet and scrunch them together.
- Add about a tablespoon and a half or so sauce on top of each chaffle.
- Add your favorite pizza toppings. This is a great opportunity to include the munchkins in the process.
- Cover it all in cheese! Because, cheese.
- Cook about 20 minutes, until the cheese is golden brown. You know, like perfect pizza cheese!
- It’s easiest to use a single chaffle’s worth as a serving here. Cutting these would be messy!
☕ Notes About This Thing
- Please consider nutritionals an estimate, based on what you might use in terms of chaffles, sauce, cheese and pizza toppings. Basically all of it is ballpark, because it’s going to vary from mine to yours. I’m also using the numbers for regular spaghetti sauce to make sure I don’t underestimate what you’ve got on hand.
- Bottom line: I’m not one to tell anybody how many pepperonis are “enough” for goodness sakes! That’s more an existential question than a low carb recipe question…
