"Inside Out" Pizza aka Pizza Balls

I absolutely love Pizza Rolls from Totino's(r)  so when I found this recipe I had to try it! Josh loves them too and he despises Pizza Rolls from Totino's. He asked for them again last week so I am currently baking them for us.


It is a super easy recipe and honestly pretty easy. 

You will Need:

1 Roll of Refrigerated Pizza Dough

Marinara/Pizza Sauce

2 T grated Parmesan Cheese

1 T olive oil or Melted Butter

1/2 t garlic powder or to taste

1 t dried Italian Seasoning (If I am running Low I have used Pizza Seasoning also.) 

Mozzarella Cheese (I use the Block of cheese and cut it in cubes but you can use shredded.)

Pizza Toppings of Choice.

• Preheat oven to heat specified on pizza dough package. Usually it’s 400 degrees. If you make your own dough, 400 is usually a good heat as well.
• Unroll your pizza dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll the dough so it’s about 12″ by 8″. You’re going to want to cut it into 24 squares, so just eyeball it if you need to. Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough into 24 squares. It makes life so much easier!  
• Place cheese and desired toppings on each square. (Note that you’re not putting the marinara sauce on the dough- it’s for dipping after)  Just eyeball how much. You just need to be able to enclose the toppings in the dough so keep that in mind. I like mine with more Cheese!!! Mmmm! 
• When all of your dough squares have cheese and toppings on them, carefully lift up each square and wrap the dough around the toppings. Pinch to make sure each ball is sealed shut and then place them seam side down in a lightly sprayed pie pan (or similar sized dish).
• Brush the tops of the dough balls with olive oil or melted butter. Here I used Olive Oil and then sprinkle with the garlic and Italian seasoning and top with Parmesan cheese. 
• 
  
• Cook them in the oven for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown on top. Keep an eye on them! Doughs vary, so I’d check them after even 10 minutes.
• 
  
• Serve warm with warmed marinara sauce on the side for dipping.

The outsides are like garlic bread and the insides are full of oozing cheese. This might just be a perfect food. OMG. My oven just beeped Its ready! I can't wait!!!! :) 

I will be posting a picture later!

 The red isn't sauce its the greasy goodness from the Pepperoni!!!
