My oldest often asks me to pack pizza for school lunch. I solved the problem of how to pack cold pizza with these easy pizza rolls. She loves gobbling them up and I love how super simple they are to make. I like to buy three or four prepared pizza dough packages from Trader Joe's to keep on hand for pizza requests. They freeze really well and still taste delicious.
If you want to get more veggies into your kid's diet, pureeing some spinach or other roasted veggies into the pizza sauce is a great way to bump up the nutritional value without much change in the taste.
Easy Pizza Rolls
Ingredients
- Pre-Made Pizza Dough
- 14 oz Pizza Sauce
- Mozzarella Log, pre-sliced
- Pepperoni
- Preheat oven to 375F and place dough on counter to come to room temperature (about 10-15 minutes).
- Roll out pizza dough into a large rectangular shape. Spread the pizza sauce, slices of mozzarella cheese and pepperoni (or your preferred toppings) onto the dough. Roll into a large log and cut slices about 1 1/2" apart.
- Place pizza rolls into a pre-greased muffin tin. Bake for approximately 13 minutes, until golden. Let cool slightly and serve warm (or cold in the lunchbox like my daughter seems to enjoy).
