Blog Mode: ON .. and running!!

I really had no idea how to start my blog, but I wanted one so badly so I went blog searching for ideas and I ran in to The Girl Who Ate Everything. This is Christy's site of recipes and her experience with food and it got me inspired. I could relate to it so much. So, I decided to try one of the recipes. Stuffed Pizza Rolls and to tell you the truth.. I loved it!!.

Here's my experience with it:

Here are the rolls stuffed and resting.


Rolls decorated with butter, garlic, and oregano and ready for the oven!!


Fresh out of the oven with a nice color! Yummy!!


Since the 1st trail turned out so good..
.. I made plenty more!!

The following recipe is from OurBestBites.com 

Stuffed Pizza Rolls
by OurBestBites

1 roll refrigerated pizza dough
marinara/pizza sauce
2 Tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 Tablespoon melted butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
mozzerella cheese, diced or grated (diced is the least messy to use when stuffing the rolls)

Pizza toppings of your choice: for example, ham and pineapple, pepperoni slices, sausage, etc.

I used pepperoni and mushrooms, along with shredded mozzarella cheese and pizza sauce.

Preheat oven to heat specified on pizza dough package. Usually it's 400 degrees. If you make your own dough, 400 is usually a good heat as well.

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, so just eyeball it if you need to. Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough into 24 squares.

Place cheese and desired toppings on each square. Just eyeball how much. You just need to be able to enclose the toppings in the dough so keep that in mind. *Don't put marinara in the rolls. Save it for dipping.

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).

Brush the tops of the dough balls with olive oil or melted butter and then sprinkle with the garlic and Italian seasoning and top with Parmesan cheese.
Cook them in the oven for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown on top. Keep an eye on them! Doughs vary, so I'd check them after even 10 minutes.

Serve warm with warmed marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
