Appetizer

Pepperoni Pizza Rolls

Super Bowl Sunday is quickly approaching (go Giants!), so here is an easy appetizer to make using Pillsbury Crescent Rolls.  What’s great about this recipe is that you have total creative control with the filling.  Play around with different combinations.  I’m sure you’ll enjoy your creations!

Start with the filling…

  • Chop up some pepperoni and combine it with shredded mozzarella cheese.

  • Add some dried oregano and mix.

  • Mix well and sprinkle in some grated parmesan cheese.

Next, open up the package of crescent rolls…

  • Place the pieces cut side down on a cookie sheet.

  • Brush the top of each piece with the egg white.  (I hope you listened and saved it!  😉
