The 1099-K does not need to be entered separately into your tax return. The IRS is looking for the income that is reported on the 1099-K to be in your return.
In some cases, like yours and others, as long as the numbers on the 1099-K or a 1099-MISC are present on your tax return, the form does not need to be entered. Your simpler solution to not include the 1099-K is good. You are handling everything just fine if the total income you are reporting matches the total income shown on the Form 1099-K. This will not raise a red flag with the IRS.
