How many Freestyle Smart Points is in Pepperoni Pizza Casserole Recipe?

Updated with Freestyle Smart Points | 5 Points Per Serving (using 99% FF turkey burger) If you are using lean ground turkey it’s 6 Freestyle Smart Points per serving. You can even lower the points if you use sugar and oil free tomato sauce or cut down on the olive oil you use during the sauteeing.   Each Weight Watchers Pepperoni Pizza Casserole should be divided into 12 equal servings. This will probably yield you about 1 cup per serving. Unfortunately, I don’t accurately measure my casseroles like I probably should.

Topping Suggestions for Pepperoni Pizza Casserole

(top with additional zero point vegetables if you desire) I really like to add spinach, broccoli, and mushrooms to pizza. Thankfully, those are all zero points on the SmartPoints plan!! Try adding hot peppers, spices, and even pickled vegetables can be a great compliment to your pepperoni pizza casserole.  If you are looking for another easy recipe that the whole family will love to be sure to try this Weight Watchers Chicken Pot Pie recipe.
