I realized that the food I post usually has something to do with pizza or chocolate….oh well, I have small kids, but at least it’s homemade, right??!!
These Pizza Rolls are a big hit in my family.
They are not hard to make. You basically make the dough, flatten it out, throw some toppings on it and roll it up. The kids really love them. We took them on picnics or to home school co-ops this past summer. Very handy to keep in the freezer as well. They freeze well uncooked.
Make a double batch and put half in the freezer for later, then just pull out a tray for a lunch on a busy day.
