Stuffed Pizza Rolls

I usually make the same things for dinner. I have about 20 meals that I just repeat over and over and over. It gets boring and nobody looks forward to dinner. So, last week I decided that is going to change. New food is coming our way, watch out family, its about to get interesting.

These are something new for us, we eat pizza but we just buy a DiGiorno. So even though I just bought the canned pizza dough and a jar of pizza sauce, I put the thing together. My husband who does not care what I make him as long as he eats, loved these. They are really good, and I think we may have 21 meals in our rotation from now on.

I made 2 kinds, you really can put whatever you want in them, we had pepperoni and ham and pineapple...

Stuffed Pizza Rolls

Recipe Source: ourbestbites.com

1 roll Refrigerated Pizza Dough, I used thin crust
1 jar Pizza Sauce
2 Tablespoons grated Parmesan Cheese
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil or Melted Butter
Garlic Powder
Oregano

Basil

Mozzarella Cheese
Pizza toppings of your choice: Ham and Pineapple, Pepperoni, Sausage, etc.

1. Preheat oven to heat specified on pizza dough package. Unroll your pizza dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll the dough so it's about 12" by 8". You're going to want to cut it into 24 squares. Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough into 24 squares.

2. Place cheese and desired toppings on each square. (Don't put marinara sauce on the dough- it's for dipping after) You just need to be able to enclose the toppings in the dough so keep that in mind.  I used 2 slices of pepperoni and about a teaspoon each of cheese, canadian bacon, and pineapple.

3. When all of your dough squares have cheese and toppings on them, carefully lift up each square and wrap the dough around the toppings. Pinch to make sure each ball is sealed shut and then place them seam side down in a lightly sprayed pie pan (or similar sized dish).

4. Brush the tops of the dough balls with olive oil or melted butter and then sprinkle with the garlic powder, oregano and basil and top with Parmesan cheese.

5. Cook them in the oven for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown on top. Serve warm with warmed marinara sauce for dipping.
