Mini Spinach And Cheese Pizza Rolls Food

HOMEMADE SPINACH PIZZA ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with Reynolds Wrap® Non-Stick Aluminum Foil; sprinkle with cornmeal. Set aside.
• Brown sausage in large skillet on medium-high heat. Drain and set aside.
• Unroll pizza dough onto prepared baking sheet. Carefully stretch or roll dough into a 13x10-inch rectangle. Arrange sausage on dough to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the mozzarella. Layer spinach on cheese. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella and the Parmesan. Starting from a long side, roll up dough to make a 13-inch-long loaf. Pinch seam and ends to seal.
• Place loaf, seam side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with egg. Using a sharp knife, cut four 2-inch slits in top for steam to escape.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. If necessary, cover the last 5 minutes of baking to prevent overbrowning. Remove from oven and slice into rounds to serve with pizza sauce.

SPINACH AND CHEESE PIZZA ROLL-UPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly dust a baking sheet and work surface with flour.
• Roll the dough into a rectangle about the size of the baking sheet (13 by 18 inches).
• In a large bowl, combine the spinach, mozzarella and garlic. Toss to combine. Evenly sprinkle over the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border all the way around. Dot the mixture with the ricotta cheese and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Roll the dough into a log, starting at a short end. Tuck any filling that may have fallen out back into the roll. Transfer the log seam-side down to the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and bake until golden brown and puffed, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, then slice into rounds and serve with marinara sauce.

FAVORITE PIZZA ROLLS (WITH SPINACH AND CHEESE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400° F and grease a muffin tin very well, including around the top of each cup since the cheese may spill out a little.
• Use your hands to stretch the dough into an 11x16-inch rectangle on a piece of parchment paper. (This helps prevent the dough from sticking to the counter. If it's hard to stretch, let it rest for 5 minutes and try again. Sometimes the gluten needs to rest.)
• Spread pizza sauce over the dough to cover, then sprinkle on the spinach, mozzarella, and Parmesan. Starting on one long side, roll the dough up carefully and fairly tightly to enclose the toppings. (It might be a little messy, but it's okay! Use the parchment paper to help you roll.)
• Use a serrated knife to cut into 12 even slices. I start in the center, then make a cut in the center of each piece, and then finish slicing to get the most even results.
• Place each slice into a prepared muffin cup and bake for 22-26 minutes until the dough is baked through, the cheese is melted, and the tops are golden.
• Let cool for 3-5 minutes in the pan to allow the cheese to firm up slightly, then transfer to a wire rack or a plate to serve. (You may need to use a a knife around the edges of the pan if the cheese spilled over.)
• Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge or in a zip-lock freezer bag with as much air removed as possible in the freezer for up to 3 months. To serve from frozen, place on a plate and microwave for 30-60 seconds or until warm.

• Working with 1 piece of dough at a time, flatten and gently stretch into a 3-inch round. Place 1 tablespoon spinach mixture in center of each and fold dough around filling to form balls. Place balls, seam side down, in baking dish. Brush tops with garlic oil and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper and bake until puffed and golden, about 30 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes; serve with warm marinara sauce.
