We did!
3 cheers for simplicity and pepperoni
If you should chance to get a little bored with pizza, if that's even a possibility...growing up we had Little Ceasar's Pizza every Friday night. Same flavors. Same breadsticks. Never boring. But, it might happen at your house. As the main chef here, I got a little bored rolling out the same circle of dough, week in and week out. So, change it up! Roll a new shape!
Last week, we ventured into Stromboli!
molto delizioso!
Just make a rectangle (pictured top) fill it and roll it like a cinnamon roll. Cut some vents into the top of the dough, and bake it into these yummy rolls!
A favorite for Fridays, or any day is Calzones!
Pinch off small rounds of dough, roll into 3 inch circles, or have your little helpers roll them into circles...they love it! Fill, fold over, pinch sides together, and seal with a fork. Do a better job than I did or you will lose that tasty filling right out the sides!
Tips for filling: keep your sauce for dipping. It really doesn't stay in the calzone during baking and will make a mess of your pizza stone, baking sheet, or even oven! We like a mix of shredded mozzarella, parmesan, choice of meat, like crumbled sausage or pepperoni, and some veggies, like peppers or spinach. Find the right flavor combos, mix in a bowl, and scoop 1/4 c or so into the middle of your dough circle. You can not go wrong!
Alrighty then. This somehow became a cooking blog. I am a foodie. But, this blog wasn't a minute ago. I don't know what happened. Forgive me. Go pretend like you are chef with your own brick oven and make delicious pizza or calzones or stomboli. Eat. Then all will be forgiven.
