MEAT LOVER'S PIZZA CRESCENT RING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Cook the sausage, stirring and breaking up into pieces, in a medium skillet over medium-high heat until browned in some spots and cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the pizza sauce. Let cool slightly, about 15 minutes.
• Coat the back of a baking sheet with cooking spray. Unroll both cans of crescent dough and separate unto 16 triangles. Put a 5-inch ramekin in the center of the prepared baking sheet. Arrange the triangles in a ring around the ramekin so the short sides of the dough are touching the ramekin, overlapping slightly, and the pointed ends are facing outward (it should look like a giant sun).
• Spoon the sausage mixture over the short ends of the triangles closest to the ramekin. Cover the sausage with the ham slices. Top the ham with the pepperoni and then cover pepperoni with cheese slices. Remove the ramekin. Take hold of the pointed end of one of the triangles and fold it up and over the filling, tucking the tip under the bottom edge of dough to secure (the dough will not cover the filling completely). Repeat with the remaining triangles (there will be some gaps where you can see the mixture).
• Bake until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 25 minutes. Brush the dough with the butter and sprinkle with the Italian seasoning. Let cool for 15 minutes. Use a spatula to slide the ring off the baking sheet onto a platter. Serve with more pizza sauce.

PARTY SAUSAGE PIZZA ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and 1/2 teaspoon of the oregano, season with 1 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato puree, 1/4 cup water, 5 torn basil leaves and the red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage rounds and brown on both sides, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Mix the Parmesan with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon oregano in a small bowl.
• Divide the pizza dough into 8 portions. Flatten into 4-inch squares either by stretching with your hands or using a rolling pin. Spoon 1 tablespoon of sauce onto a square and spread around. Top with 1/4 cup of the Italian cheese blend, one-eighth of the sausage and 1 basil leaf. Wrap the dough around the filling and pinch the edge and ends to seal. Place seam-side down the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough and ingredients.
• Brush the rolls with olive oil and sprinkle with the Parmesan oregano mixture. Cut 2 slashes across the top. Bake until golden and bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm with the remaining sauce on the side for dipping.

PIZZA ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage and cook, using the back of a wooden spoon to crumble into fine pieces, until lightly browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in the pepperoni, pizza sauce, oregano, granulated garlic and pepper flakes. Remove to a large bowl and allow to cool slightly. Fold in the mozzarella and season to taste with additional salt if needed.
• Put 1 wonton wrapper down on a flat work surface. Put a slightly heaping teaspoon of filling in the middle of the upper half of the wrapper, then put a slightly heaping teaspoon of filling in the middle of the bottom half, making sure that the fillings are evenly spaced apart. Brush egg wash all around the fillings and on the edges of the wrapper. Fold both sides of the wrapper over the fillings letter-fold style, overlapping them and being careful not to press down on the fillings. Turn the wrapper over so that the seal is on the bottom, then use your fingers to gently press down in between the fillings and around the edges. Use a sharp knife to cut the wrapper in half between the fillings. Use your fingers to tightly seal both ends of the pizza rolls. Put the filled pizza rolls on a large baking sheet. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
• Fill a Dutch oven halfway with canola oil and heat to 350 degrees F. Set a cooling rack over a baking sheet. Fry the pizza rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the cooling rack. Once all the pizza rolls are fried, move them to a large serving platter and serve immediately.

PIZZA ROLLS

Steps:

• Roll out the Pizza Dough on a floured surface until it's a large rectangle about 8 inches by 12 inches. Smear with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Spread the surface with about 1/2 cup of the Marinara Sauce, then sprinkle with the Parmesan. Lay the mozzarella slices over the sauce. Smear the pesto over the cheese. Lay on the pepperoni, olives and bell peppers.
• Unwrap the string cheese and lay it in a line at the top of the dough. Roll it towards you so that the string cheese ends up in the middle of the roll of dough; pinch the seam closed. Slice into 1-inch pieces and place them in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet. Allow the rolls to rise for 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Bake until the bread is golden and the fillings are bubbly, about 15 minutes. Serve immediately with warm Marinara Sauce.
• Sprinkle the yeast over 3/4 cup warm (not lukewarm) water in a bowl and leave to sit for a bit.
• In a mixer, add the flour and salt and, with the mixer running on low speed (with the paddle attachment), slowly pour in the olive oil and keep going until it's mixed through. Next, pour in the yeast/water mixture and mix until just combined.
• Coat a separate mixing bowl with a light drizzle of olive oil, tip the dough in and form it into a ball. Toss to coat the dough ball in the olive oil, then cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise for at least 1 hour.
• Add a tablespoon or so of olive oil to a hot pan over medium-high heat, throw in the garlic and onion and give them a stir. Add the wine (or chicken broth), whisking to deglaze the bottom of the skillet. Cook until the liquid reduces by half.
• Add the crushed tomatoes and stir to combine. Add salt and pepper to taste and a pinch of sugar. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes.
• Toward the end of the cooking process, chop up fresh parsley and basil and add it to the sauce to taste, stirring to combine.
