    Pizza is always a winner in our house and cheesy meatballs are definitely comfort food around here, so we threw together a super easy, super cheesy meatball pizza. Make a big batch of meatballs and freeze in portions along with this fresh pizza dough recipe so you’ll have meatball pizzas ready to go when you want them.

    You can use frozen meatballs to save on time but you will have to adjust points accordingly, I prefer to make my own and I added a little pizza flare to mine.

    How do you make Meatball Pizza?

    1. A pizza pan is rubbed with a little bit of oil. Pizza dough is spread into the pan, poked with a fork. Then spread prepared sauce over it.

    2. The topping is assembled by cooking the meatballs in a hot pan.

    3. Then pizza dough is topped with the cheddar cheese, meatballs, red and green bell pepper and a generous portion of mozzarella cheese.

    Where is the best place to buy Pizza dough?

    1. Most markets have some sort of pizza dough that they sell.  You’ll probably be able to find the kind of pizza dough in the can (not my favorite), and some will offer it in a little plastic baggie (probably a better product and likely more fresh).
    2. I do have a tip for the best place to buy pizza dough.  Most pizza restaurants will likely be willing to sell you a ball of their pizza dough.  Just ask!  That’s going to be your best bet for good pizza dough!
    3.  You can also make your own. I have good recipe for Easy Pizza Dough.

    What are the best toppings for pizza?

    1. If you’re a meat lover, you’ll most likely enjoy some sort of meat lover’s pizza like this Meatball Pizza!  BBQ Chicken Pizza is my another favorite. 
    2. And my personal choice for pizza topping is Bell Peppers, Olives and Pineapple.  Chicken Chunks, Sausage are also popular pizza toppings ( but I don’t like it that much).
    3. Some people like to add olives, corn, goat cheese, spinach and more.  The possibilities are endless!

    It’s pretty likely that everyone in your family will enjoy this Meatball Pizza.  It’s a nice, quick and easy dinner for those nights that are crazy!

    How to make the Seekh Kebab Pizza Bites

    First I line up the muffin pan with homemade pizza dough and cut it into round circles (No need to be extremely accurate with the measurements).  I just wanted the pizza bites to be about the same size. Then I top it with the pizza sauce. I always keep a jar of homemade pizza sauce in my pantry to make these kinds of easy pizzas at a moment’s notice. Next is the cheese then the leftover seekh kebabs with onion and peppers then sprinkle herb seasoning and bake at 180 degree C for 10-15 minutes!

  • Unbelievably Awesome BBQ Chicken Pizza Recipe

    Unbelievably Awesome BBQ Chicken Pizza Recipe

    Let’s take a quick break from dessert and talk about pizza. Thick style homemade pizza crust topped with BBQ sauce, Barbecue flavored Chicken Chunks, onions, capsicum, jalapeno, and tons of cheese. Your soon-to-be favorite pizza!

    It’s Cheesy, doughy, crispy on the edges, soft in the middle, loaded, homemade pizza. All you need is 35 minutes and a few fresh ingredients for this Unbelievably Awesome BBQ Chicken Pizza recipe.

    Unbelievably Awesome BBQ Chicken Pizza

    What’s your favorite kind? For me, nothing beats my Italian Herb Crusted Cheese Pizza. But this BBQ chicken pizza is in close 2nd place! Sweet BBQ sauce, chicken chunks, red onions, a dash of jalapeno, and tons of cheese.

    My version of savory heaven, right here.

    Unbelievably Awesome BBQ Chicken Pizza

    Unbelievably Awesome BBQ Chicken Pizza

    When I make homemade pizza, I like to get the cheese extra melted and bubbly. I love the sides to get a little brown and the bottom to be extra crispy. To obtain all this goodness, I switch my oven to broil for a quick minute as the pizza is finishing up. I suggest you try it! What I don’t suggest you try is walking out of the kitchen to answer your phone, only to come back finding your pizza burnt to a black crisp with the oven still on broil.

    Whoops! Yeah, I make mistakes too.

    UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME BBQ CHICKEN PIZZA

    UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME BBQ CHICKEN PIZZA

    My love affair with barbecue chicken pizza began long, long ago. The flavors and textures in this pizza are incredible! You have the sweet tang from the BBQ sauce, the meaty chicken, the zesty red onion, fresh green pepper, smoky jalapeno, soft crust, crispy edges, and ultra cheesy mozzarella covering it all. Does anything sound better?

    Ditch the delivery guy, you’re eating homemade tonight! It’s easy, cheesy, and fun, especially on the weekends!  While you can never go wrong with traditional cheese and pepperoni, give BBQ chicken chunks a chance and you wont be disappointed!  You can cook your own chicken and shred it for this recipe, or use a rotisserie chicken, which gives great flavor and cuts the prep time in half!  This is the easiest recipe and tastes super delicious!

    Bismillah let’s get started. 

    UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME BBQ CHICKEN PIZZA

    First, get your oven heated up to Gas Mark 180 degrees C.  Then, grab some pizza dough. You can use a ready made pizza base which would make dinner appear a lot faster. I used one batch of my Fresh Pizza Dough. 

    Place it onto a floured surface. And, roll and shape the dough into a 9-inch triangle. Roll out to fit your pizza tray. Next, You need barbecue sauce. Use shop bought or make it homemade which I did using this Homemade Barbecue Sauce recipe.  It’s really easy and uses ingredients that I bet you already have in the cupboard. Now, grab the rest of your ingredients. Top with chicken chunks and play with your favorite toppings.  

    UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME BBQ CHICKEN PIZZA

    Finally, take some Grated Mozzarella. And, then the jalapeno slices.

  • The Easiest Bread Pizza Recipe

    The Easiest Bread Pizza Recipe

    No time to make your own dough? Same here. Skip the homemade crust for easy, cheesy love in 10 minutes. Use bread slices for the crust and have dinner ready in no time. Loaded with great taste and ready in under 15 minutes start-to-finish, it’s sure to become a family favorite! A fun and flexible recipe you’re sure to make over and over again!

    The Easiest Bread Pizza Recipe
    Just try saying no to that

    The Easiest Bread Pizza

    I could eat pizza all day, every day. But I don’t always have the time to make my own crust. Delivery adds up, and store bought crusts tend to be pretty low quality. That’s where this bread pizza recipe comes in. It isn’t even so much of a recipe, per se, but a guideline for happiness.

    The Easiest Bread Pizza Recipe

    I love it for many reasons.

    1. First, it fits the quick and easy bill beautifully. Simply places the bread slices, brush with butter, and give it a little broil to create that crunchy-on-the-outside but soft-and-chewy-on-the-inside texture that’s so wonderful in this easiest bread pizza. Then slather on some prepared sauce, load on the toppings, and give it all a quick 6 to 8 minute bake in the oven. Done. Add a side salad or some fresh fruit, and dinner’s served.
    2. Second, it tastes delicious. Before piling on the toppings, the bread itself is seasoned with garlic powder and oregano for a little added flavor touch. And then with the classic “supreme” combination of toppings, how could it not be tasty, right?
    3. Third, it’s versatile. Change up the toppings to suit any personal tastes. Don’t like veggies? No problem … leave them off. Want more cheese? Great! … load it up. Or hey, get totally crazy and prepare each bread toast differently … perhaps Supreme for one slice, and just pepperoni and cheese for the other. Or, if you like more unique pizza flavor combinations, give My Favorite French Bread Pizza a whirl.
    4. Fourth, it reheats well. If you don’t mind soft bread all around, a quick zap in the microwave works great. For that classic bread pizza touch-of-crunch, pop the pizza back in a preheated oven for just a couple of minutes and you’re good to go.
    5. And fifth, The Easiest Bread Pizza isn’t just great for a quick and easy dinner, it’s always fabulous for game-day {or any day} snacking, too. Bake some up and slice into fingers for a tasty treat while you’re cheering on your favorite team.
    The Easiest Bread Pizza
    The Easiest Bread Pizza

    Bread pizza is one of the quickest & easiest snacks that you can make with minimal ingredients. All you need is of course some bread slices, veggies of your choice, pizza sauce, cheese, leftover chicken, and some seasoning. Easy right?

    To make the bread pizza healthier use whole wheat breads or any bread that you fancy. Garlic bread would taste great too. 

    The Easiest Bread Pizza recipe
    The Easiest Bread Pizza

    There are a few tricks to making this bread pizza taste its best. First, you’ll want to toast the bread for about 5 minutes by itself to crisp it up a bit. Then you’ll add the pizza sauce , cheese (a good melty mozzarella) and your favorite toppings (I liked veggie version, but you can add leftover tikka, seekh kebabs,  cooked mince, mushrooms etc choices are endless ) before returning it to the oven to get the cheese melty and the pizza glistening.

    And that’s all there is to it! This is great recipe to make with your kids or better yet, let your kids make themselves.

    So easy, so yummy!

    The Easiest Bread Pizza recipe
    The Easiest Bread Pizza

    Allow to cool for a few minutes, slice and enjoy!

    For dinner, I’ll serve it alongside a big salad. For lunch, I usually put out veggies and hummus to go with it. And for an ea  snack, I cut each toast into fourths and serve it with fruit. They’re easy to make, easy to eat and easy to clean up after. YES!!

  • Italian Herb Crusted Cheese Pizza Recipe

    Italian Herb Crusted Cheese Pizza Recipe

    Let’s Make Pizza Night Fun!

    After a whole month of no blogging, no cooking and baking I’m back in the biz with this star of a recipe – “Italian Herb Crusted Cheese Pizza!”

    I was extremely busy with my mid terms exams and eid shopping, so I couldn’t get a chance to publish new posts on my blog. Exams were taking priority sadly. But from now till eid, I’ll be try to more regular (InshaAllah)!

    I’m a lover of Italian food and fresh herbs and my family loves pizza in all forms. One of our favorite family meals is homemade pizza. We make regular Homemade pizza, Pan pizza, Pizza Cups, Pizza Rolls, Pizza sandwiches , Pizza Paratha and Pizza fries. One thing we love about it is that you can get really creative with toppings and today’s recipe is one of my recent (and favorite) creations –Italian Herb Crusted Cheese Pizza.

     Italian Herb Crusted Cheese Pizza recipe

    Can you say “Delicioso?”  OMG, this pizza did not disappoint!   This, to me, is the perfect Italian Flavored pizza. The crust is light and crispy. The sauce is thick and tomato-y. The fresh mozzarella is mild and cheesy. The basil leaves are bright and fresh and the herb aroma is amazing. When I bit in and my mouth filled with saucy, cheesy, herby goodness I’m pretty sure I had a pizzagasm.  The cheese melted perfectly into the crust , the flavors being even more dramatic where it had browned into that crunchy, cheesy topping. 

     Italian Herb Crusted Cheese Pizza

    I love eating food where in each bite you get something a little bit different, it makes it all the more interesting and enjoyable to eat and this pizza definitely delivers that… I like the basil leaves to be baked along with the pizza, but you can sprinkle them on top after baking if you prefer them uncooked. This recipe can be done with little effort, but it has a big impact on your taste buds and entire dinner experience.

    Italian Herb Crusted Cheese Pizza recipe
    Photo: Italian Herb Crusted Cheese Pizza

    For this pizza I decided to use the pre-made homemade pizza dough, but feel free to make your own from scratch. It’s very straightforward to make and if you don’t fancy making your own pizza base then you could simply add the toppings to a store bought pizza crust. I always brush my pizza dough with olive oil and herb seasoning to make it even more delicious!
    While my pizza dough was rising in the pan, I prepared the pizza toppings. The pizza crust bakes for about 10-15 minutes in a 200 degree oven (or until crispy and light brown and cheese is melted). The secret to a good Sicilian crust is a nice coating of olive oil on the pan. That helps crisp up the bottom of the crust. A very hot oven is also crucial. The hard part is waiting for this oh so delicious pizza! The wait is definitely worth it, because you are rewarded with an amazingly delicious pizza.

  • Veggie Pizza Cups Recipe

    Veggie Pizza Cups Recipe

    As a child I was not the veggie lover I am today.When my mommy cooked veggies, I was apprehensive. Vegetables? Ew! A few years have passed since then and I love veggies of all shapes and sizes.  

    This weekend, I had a day off and I decided to cook nothing but finger foods. I knew I wanted veggie pizza, but I wanted something more convenient and easier to eat. I have found that when I make veggie pizza in the flat pizza style, it can be a little messy to eat because the toppings want to fall off. So, I did a quick Youtube search and found the recipe I used as inspiration for my Veggie Pizza Cups.

    It’s one of my favorite finger food. It’s amazing that just a few basic ingredients can come together into something so delicious.  For topping, I decided to use mixed veggies (corn, carrot, capsicum, green onion) and mushrooms in these because they’re my favorites veggies, but you could easily mix it up and use any toppings you like. I really do recommend making it as listed though, because these were just perfect. It tastes just like you’re eating a slice of pizza! Don’t skip out on the Italian Seasoning either – I think it adds a lot of flavor.

    Pizza is always a crowd pleaser, but making your own can be a bit of a headache. This bite-sized alternative is easy to make and healthy (just 150 calories each!) and as much fun to make as they are to eat.

    I’m sure you’ve all heard of or made Pizza Cupcakes or  Pizza Muffins before. But as simple or obvious as this recipe seems, sometimes we need a good reminder of the un-fussy classics. Sometimes you don’t have time or the right ingredients to make an elaborate meal. When this happens, it’s good to have something simple and inexpensive to fall back on.

    Healthy, Budget Friendly Mini Pizza Cups? Yes, Yes, and Yes!

    If you’re crazy about pizza like me, but can’t justify eating it as much as you’d like, this is a great recipe for you. I used leftover pizza dough, chicken, lots of fresh vegetables, and a tablespoon or so of cheese on each mini pizza. Considering each pizza cup base 60 calories, the shredded chicken & cheese about 40 calories, and the rest of the ingredients were vegetables, I’m guessing each pizza had about 150 calories. This is not scientific, but it’s my best guess.

    This Chapli Kebab Pizza is my Pakistanized pizza makeover…..you could say that this is an Pakistani-Italian delight….hey, fusion food is the latest fad.  A delicious and easy to make pizza with crispy, juicy chapli kebab’s and  melty mozzarella cheese!  It is sure to be a hit!

    Chapli Kebab Pizza

    This pizza is so easy to make with left over Chapli Kebab’s with the cheesy topping….nobody could resist. I added dried Italian herbs to the pizza base and that gave a subtle Italian flavor with the Pakistani flavored topping. And just followed my heart to a logical conclusion. I took the shortcut and used the Chili Garlic sauce in place of pizza sauce and lessen cheese to keep it healthy and low fat( you can add more cheese). Well… I needn’t explain what the result was. The recipe finding its place in this blog itself says it all….. Right???

  • Homemade Veggie Pizza Recipe

    Homemade Veggie Pizza Recipe

    We’ve entered the season of warm comfort food. Soups, Stews, roast meat, etc. And sometimes all that heavy food seems . . . well . . . heavy. 

    Homemade Veggie Pizza

    Just about everyone loves pizza, myself included. However, traditional restaurant pizza is generally made with refined (white) flour, and loaded with saturated fat and sodium – things that can quickly lead to weight gain and harm your health. To make pizza something I can feel good about eating regularly, I’ve found ways to make my own healthier versions. The key is using whole grains, less cheese and loading up on lots of healthy veggies and herbs. Also eating produce that’s in season helps you save money and also ensures you are getting a good variety of foods and nutrients.

    homemade-veggie-pizza3

    This pizza included some of my favorite veggies and herbs: carrots, red onion, broccoli, corn, green or red pepper, olives and fresh basil.  The ingredients only required about 20 minutes of prep time, starting with chopping the veggies and tossing them in a little olive oil for roasting.  Adding a fresh herbs to the veggies adds nice flavor (and makes your kitchen smell amazing during cooking!).

    In addition to its great taste, winter veggies especially broccoli  is  the good sources of dietary fiber and rich in magnesium. Broccoli is loaded with antioxidants, fiber, and numerous vitamins and minerals including magnesium, fol-ate and fiber which are good for health.

    Homemade Veggie Pizza

    While my super-food veggies were roasting I gathered and prepped my other ingredients. The dough only required a thin spread of pizza sauce and cheese to provide creamy texture and cheesy flavor.

    The veggies were done once they were slightly crisped and fork-tender, and I spooned them over the dough. I finished the pizzas off by topping them with the Mozzarella cheese, olives and a sprinkle of herbs.

    The last step involves popping the pizzas in the oven – I chose to make veggie pizzas  in individual mini pizza pans. They only needed about 15 minutes to cooked the dough and for the cheese to melt. I loved the contrast of the cheese, olives and herbs with the crunch from the veggies on this flavorful pizza!

    If you need a lighter dish, that doesn’t skimp on flavor, try this Homemade Veggie Pizza recipe. It’s fresh, full of flavor, and won’t weigh you down like the winter comfort food can.  Pizzas like this can be enjoyed as a quick and easy lunch or dinner, and make a tasty addition to a healthy diet. Enjoy!

    Recipe Tip’s:

    1. Feel free to play around a bit with the ingredients in this recipe if you make it yourself.
    2. Add nuts (walnuts, pumpkin seeds), more veggies, would be great, and you could also skip the cheese all-together and instead use the ricotta cheese as the sauce/base.

    Bismillah, Let’s get started!

  • Quick Weeknight Dinner: Chicken Tikka Pizza Recipe (Ready in Under 30 Minutes)

    Chicken Tikka Pizza

    Pizza is a popular and delicious dish of Italian origin, that has become extremely popular all over the world.
    Today i am bringing you guys an amazing fusion dish. Fusion cooking is a delight! It creates magic and is fairly easy to do. When we combine a number of cuisines in one meal, we get a delicious combination of new tastes and flavors.
    If you love pizza and you love BBQ aroma – then this is totally your kind of Pizza.It sounded AH-mazing!…and it sure was! It was “love at first bite”!

    Chicken Tikka Pizza Recipe

    Chicken tikka is Asian style of barbecued chicken and it tastes fabulous as a topping on pizza. It has become widely popular in Pakistan.

    Chicken Tikka Pizza Marination
    Photo: Chicken Tikka Pizza Marination

    I made it yesterday for my family and especially for my brother. He is a true pizza lover. He was sad when it got over and even though he knew there was no more pizza left he was talking about how he felt like having this pizza the next day. He still talks about it. And while writing this post, I wish I had some pizza dough so that I could make this again now.
    If you ask me what makes a good pizza, i would definitely say that it is the sauce. I will overlook a ‘meh’ crust if the sauce is good. Yeah, but of course, i would prefer when both the crust and sauce are amazing, but the highlight of a pizza for me is definitely its sauce. And this sauce is just ‘magical perfection’. Talking about the crust, i prefer thin crust pizza over a thick chewy one. And this recipe gives you the perfect crust. The best part is that it is super easy. Hope you guys give this recipe a try and be fall illustrious among your friends and relatives for making finest an admirable Chicken pizza.

    So let the fun begin

    1st Prepare Chicken Tikka:

    Marinate the chicken with the lemon juice, yogurt, ginger garlic paste, roasted cumin powder, garam masala, red chilli powder, tikka masala powder and salt.Marinate for atleast 4 hours ( perferably marinate overnight).

    Chicken Tikka Pizza MarinationPhoto: Chicken Tikka Pizza Marination

    Now broil on high for 8-10 minutes, turning over once. Or grill till cooked.
    Transfer into a bowl and keep side.

    Note:Sorry I din’t get grilling process pictures as I was on in a hurry to assemble the pizza. 😛

    Now Make Pizza Dough :

    In a large mixing bowl, mix 2 cups flour, yeast, sugar, milk powder and salt.
    Combine warm water, egg and butter in a small bowl.

    Pizza Dough Ingredients
    Photo: Pizza Dough Ingredients

    Add this in the flour mixture and beat with an electric mixer on High for 3 minutes.
    Using a wooden spoon, stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can. or knead with hand.
    Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic ( 3 to 5 minutes ).
    Shape dough into a ball. Place in a lightly greased bowl, turning once to grease dough surface.

    Chicken Tikka Pizza Dough
    Photo: Pizza Dough

    Cover bowl and let the dough rise in a warm place until double in size ( 50 to 60 minutes ).
    Punch dough down. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
    Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.

    To Make Pizza Sauce :
    Blend tomato paste, tomato sauce, oregano in a blender.
    Heat 1 teaspoon butter in a pan, add garlic paste & fry for 1 minute.
    Add blended tomato mixture & paprika.
    Cook on medium heat until sauce is thick. Keep aside and let it cool competely.

    To Assemble The Pizza

    Preheat oven to the highest setting on your oven. Mine goes to 250 C degree.
    If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven. I do not have one, and I use the back of my sheet pan.
    You do not have to preheat your sheet pan. Dust your sheet pan.
    Roll out your pizza dough.
    Drizzle some melted butter on top of your rolled out pizza.
    Prick with fork and let it rest for 10 minutes.
    Spread pizza sauce over it.
    Top generously with the chicken tikka and capsicum.
    Sprinkle cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese.
    Sprinkle parsley and oregano on top the pizza.
    Bake for 20 minutes or until cheese has melted and crust has cooked.
    Sprinkle some extra parsley. Let cool a little. Cut into slices and serve.

    Lets go to weekend Programming class with this fabulous pizza. I’m sure my class-fellow’s will enjoy this pizza. 🙂

    Recipe Notes:

    1. .FOR PIZZA DOUGH:  If you want to store the extra pizza dough for future use, just oil the dough ball all around and put each ball into separate zippered freezer bag. You can freeze this way for about 2-3 days.The day before you plan on using them, just transfer the dough to the refrigerator. And on the day of usage, remove from fridge, place on a floured counter and gently press the ball into 1/2 inch thickness and let rise for 2 hours.

     Chicken Tikka Pizza Dough

    FOR PIZZA CRUST: The crust cooks really fast. Mine actually took just 12 minutes. Do not over cook or your crust will become hard. By the time the cheese melts, the crust will get cooked. Even then just check before taking out.

    Chicken Tikka Pizza Crust
    Photo: Chicken Tikka Pizza Crust

    FOR PIZZA SAUCE: This recipe makes about 1-1/2 cups of pizza sauce, I often have a bit leftover for during the week if I want to make bread pizza pinwheels or homemade pizza rolls. Sometimes, I place the extra sauce in sterilized jars and freeze it until i need it next. I just let it thaw in the refrigerator when I know I am going to need it.

    FOR TIME SAVING: You wont require much time in the kitchen if you prepare the dough and marinate the chicken the night before. The next day, you will just have to grill the chicken, and thaw the dough for 2 hours and assemble the pizza.

      Super quick and easy tasty home-made pizza made using shop-bought naan bread; ready in under ten minutes! Yes, This naan bread pizza takes just 10 minutes to make from start to finish – a great quick and easy weeknight meal the whole family will love!

      Quick and Easy Ten Minute Naan Pizza
      Quick and Easy Ten Minute Naan Pizza

      Although I do really like making my own pizza from scratch, including the dough; it can be a bit of a faff and takes a while. Not good if you are hungry and craving pizza fast! I am not a fan of shop bought pizza bases, but one really good ready-made solution is naan bread; it makes the perfect pizza base and because it is pre-baked you simply need to melt your cheese to finish off your pizza.

      Quick and Easy Ten Minute Naan Pizza
      Quick and Easy Ten Minute Naan Pizza

      If the first thing you do when you crave pizza is pull out a take-out menu, it’s time to switch things up a bit. Step (leap?) outside of your comfort zone and make your own at home. Don’t worry, this doesn’t require whipping up your own dough and waiting for it to rise (or whatever it’s supposed to do). Now you can use a traditional Asian flatbread, a.k.a. naan, to bring your favorite food to life. It’s as simple as 1, 2, 3… literally.

      Step one: Buy a piece of naan.

      Step two: Top it with delicious ingredients.

      Step three: Throw it in the oven. Because ain’t nobody got time to make that dough.

      This one is topped simply with pizza sauce, leftover grilled chicken, with some vegetables (onion, sweet corn, green pepper, mushrooms) olives and herbs and chili flakes for flavour; you could also use a sore bough Pizza sauce if you prefer. I use a mixture of mozzarella and cheddar cheeses but really you can use whatever kind of cheese you like, or happen to have in the fridge. You can also chuck on some cooked veggies, kebabs or meat (any toppings need to be pre-cooked as the pizza is in the oven for such a short amount of time).

      Quick and Easy Ten Minute Naan Pizza

      They would be perfect for the friends pizza party because you can fill them individually with a vast array of toppings. They’d also be perfect as an appetizer with a glass of lemonade. In fact, I don’t really know of a time that these pizza rolls is not appropriate, do you?

      I didn’t think so.

      This Homemade Pizza Roll Recipe is perfect and my family favorites. I used my favorite pizza dough recipe to make these rolls and they turned out beautifully in just over an hour, start to finish. Super fast. You could also make the dough ahead of time and freeze it, which is what I do often!

      Let it be known that although the recipe calls for whole wheat flour, more often times than not, I just use all white flour. What can I say? I’m a carb purist.

      All you is roll out the Pizza dough, then fill with whatever toppings you choose, rolled into a spiral then baked. I kept things simple with pizza sauce, chicken and mozzarella cheese, few veggies but you could totally go crazy here and add sauteed mushrooms, goat cheese, pepperoni, bits of sausage and even scrambled eggs and cheese. The options are endless!

      Pizza sauce is my favorite part about the pizza (besides a crispy crust) and the cheese is Fatima’s & Wahab’s favorite. I fill these pizza rolls with just a little bit of sauce to make them happy and I serve with extra sauce to make me happy. 🙂

      Dip until your heart is content!
