Pizza Rolls


Ingredients:
1 can of refrigerated pizza crust
1 bag of shredded mozzarella cheese
1 bag of large pepperonis
basil
oregano
garlic powder
optional: marinara for dipping

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

2. Roll out pizza dough. Sprinkle with cheese. Place pepperonis into 3 rows. Sprinkle with spices as desired. It should look like this except I didn't use fresh basil.
3. Roll as tight as possible from the long side. After spread a little bit of water along the edge to create a seal.

4. Cut into 3/4'' rounds and place onto a foil covered cookie sheet. Similar to how you cut a cinnamon roll.

5. Bake for 10 minutes. Do not over cook!!

I made these for my sisters birthday and individually wrapped them. I placed them on a cupcake rack and used it as a centerpiece. Not only did it look cute but tasted amazing!

Directions:
1. Place jalapeno on top of chicken.

2. Wrap bacon around both jalapeno and chicken.

3. Insert kabob stick to hold bacon secure around chicken.

4. Place kabob on grill chicken side down. The bacon doesn't have to touch the grill. The heat will cook it through.
