Our mom used to have a snack ready and waiting for us everyday when we got home from school. It was always the best part of the day. These pizza rolls always take me back to those days, but now we’ve even served them for dinner!
These would make a great game day treat, too. Fill them with your favorite pizza toppings to please even your pickiest eaters (but who doesn’t love pepperoni pizza?!)

I haven’t made these in a long time. Isn’t it funny how you forget recipes. They are perfect for kids and for appetizers. Yum!
Last night, I didn’t have the pizza crust, but I did have crescent rolls so I made some “Pizza Crescents” instead.. they were delicious =) I will have to try this variation as well.
Looks awesome, gonna try this soon. I’m pregnant and love love LOVE pizza. Thank you for the idea.
Hi! Love the idea!!! but can it be made with Pilsbury buttermilk biscuits? I have never seen the pizza crust that way,
Making this into a meal. What do you serve on the side?
Thank you,

I tried these this week and the entire family LOVED them. My 4 year old was even excited that she was able to help me make them! Thanks for the great recipe!
Hi Kaylene!
I think this would go great with a green salad! Hope you like it!
Hi!
I think it would work fine with biscuits, but might be a little hard to roll out. I found the pizza crust in the same section as the biscuits. Hope you like it!

Madt this today and went 3 for 3 – all 3 family members who were home LOVED it – shared it on my blog in “Friday Football Fare”! Thanks so much!
Sounds so good and easy! How many does this serve? I have 4 ‘babies’ 9 and under.
How much garlic salt and Italian seasoning did everyone else use? “To taste” seems too broad for me, I don’t want to over season.
We added about 1/4 teaspoon. If you like those ingredients, add a little more. Hope this helps.
Hi. I live in Panama, what substitute can i use for the pizza crust ?? Do you a video ?? Can i use instead the regular base por pizza ??
You could use any type of bread dough.
Do you roll from the shirt or long end?
*short
Roll the long end up.
does this freeze well and how do you suggest freezing?
You could freeze these after baking in a freezer bag. They should be fine for to 4-6 weeks. That’s as long as they have lasted at our house.
My family loved this recipe. We made half cheese and half pepperoni. Definitely keeping this on the roster. Would make a great appetizer too
