Step 2: Assemble the Bowls

- Add Toppings:
- Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the base in each bowl.
- Layer with crumbled turkey sausage and turkey pepperoni slices.
- For an added kick, sprinkle red pepper flakes over the toppings.
Step 3: Bake
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake the Bowls:
- Place the assembled bowls on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden around the edges.
Step 4: Serve
