Ingredients
  

Dough and Sauce
  • 1 package pizza dough (store-bought or homemade) High-quality store-bought dough recommended for best results.
  • 1 cup pizza sauce Use your favorite store-bought or homemade pizza sauce.
Fillings
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese For a gooey texture.
  • 1 cup assorted toppings (e.g., olives, mushrooms, bell peppers) Mix and match your favorite toppings.
Topping and Seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil For brushing on top before baking.
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano Optional, for extra flavor.
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder Optional, for additional flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. On a floured surface, roll out your pizza dough into a rectangular shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
  3. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over the dough, leaving about an inch around the edges.
  4. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese uniformly over the sauce. Then, layer your assorted toppings on top.
  5. Starting from one edge, roll the dough tightly to create a log shape. Tuck in the ends to seal the fillings inside.
  6. Cut the roll into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1-2 inches thick, and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Lightly brush the tops of the pizza rolls with olive oil and sprinkle with dried oregano and garlic powder if desired.
Baking
  1. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
  2. Allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving with extra pizza sauce for dipping.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes or microwave for a quicker option.
