Just like all pizza recipes, this is a very versatile dish. You can add in whatever toppings you like including pepperoni, sausage, ham, olives, mushrooms, or peppers. I usually serve them with a dipping sauce. My kids like to have it with ranch on the side while me and my husband prefer warmed marinara. The thing with these is you can make them as cheesy and as saucy as you want.
You can even individualize if you want for each person in your house. How can you go wrong with that? Check out what they are saying about this recipe over at The Pioneer Woman:
“I have made this with salami, provolone cheese, green pepper and black olives….yummy!”
These make the perfect party food! You can make as much or as little as you need. Don’t worry about leftovers…there won’t be any!
Ingredients
1 whole Pizza Crust (or You Can Use Thawed Frozen Bread Dough!)
Olive Oil
Salt And Pepper, to taste
Ragu Marinara Sauce
Kraft Grated Parmesan Cheese
Sliced Mozzarella Cheese
Jarred Pesto
String Cheese
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Roll out the pizza dough onto a floured surface until it’s a large rectangle. Smear with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
Spread the surface with marinara sauce, then sprinkle generously with Parmesan. Lay a couple of layers of mozzarella slices all over the sauce. Smear pesto all over the cheese. Lay on any other pizza ingredients (pepperoni, etc.) that you’d like.
Unwrap string cheese and lay it in a line at the top of the dough. Roll it toward you so that the string cheese winds up in the middle of the roll of dough. Slice into 1 inch pieces and place in a baking dish or iron skillet. Allow the rolls to rise for 20 minutes.
Bake for 15 minutes, until the bread is golden and the fillings are bubbly. Remove and serve immediately with extra marinara sauce.
