Pizza Bread
My love affair with pizza will never end. Probably because everyone loves pizza, and everyone is excited when the answer to “what’s for dinner?” involves pizza-anything. Pizza bread is a super easy snack or lunch, or even dinner alongside a big salad.
There really is no recipe for this so I will just tell you how to make it. Roll bread or pizza dough into a large rectangle. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over it, cover with pepperoni (or whatever pizza topping you like-sausage, olives, etc), mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and a sprinkle of Italian seasoning. Roll the dough up and pinch the seams closed. Bake the loaf, seam side down, for about 30 minutes on 400°F.
Done. You are now the life of the party.
A few tips: You can buy bread and pizza dough at the store either refrigerated or frozen. If you buy frozen dough, let it thaw before trying to roll it out. If you make your own dough, use about a 1 pound loaf. Also, brush the top of the loaf all over with a beaten egg just before baking to make it glossy and brown.

Mmm…you’re so right about pizza. I sometimes even make pasta sauce that tastes like pizza, and it’s one of my favorites!

I saw this on FB today and couldn’t stop thinking about it. Pizza (good pizza) is my favorite thing in the world.

I keep thinking I should pick up some frozen pizza dough “just in case”. I think I found my “just in case”.

You know, I just finished supper (pork chops) and here I sit stuffed trying to rationalize why I should get up, go to the kitchen, pre-heat the oven and make this- I could have it for lunch tomorrow right?????? Kitchen, here I come!

This doesn’t look rolled. It looks like it was folded just once?
However you can get it done. I did *try* to roll it. 😉 -Katie

I imagine it might get too “doughy” if you roll it up tight. Looks perfect!

Nope these are called calzones. 🙂 -Katie
