Combine beef, egg, carrot, onion, bread crumbs, oregano, salt, pepper and 1/4 cup (50 mL) of the pizza sauce. Mix lightly but thoroughly to blend.
Divide mixture among 12 muffin cups, pressing into cups. Divide remaining pizza sauce among meat loaves, spooning some sauce on top of each.

In skillet, heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) olive oil over medium-high heat; add 1 cup (250 mL) EACH diced red sweet pepper and zucchini. Cook stirring occasionally until softened. Add 2/3 cup (150 mL) pizza sauce; heat through.
