Notes
Serve the pizza rolls warm with a side of tomato sauce. You can add extra toppings like crushed red pepper or grated Parmesan cheese for flavor. To store leftover rolls, let them cool completely and place in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Freeze individually for longer storage. Make sure the pizza dough is rolled out evenly to avoid uneven cooking. For a crunchier texture, bake them a little longer until golden brown. Experiment with different fillings like veggies or other meats to mix things up!
