Easy Monday Night Dinner

Tonight's dinner was super. Like a make your own pizza, we made Pepperoni (pizza) bread. I got the recipe from Amber from Amber's Delectable Delights.

I made a few changes to make it more pizza like. It was fantastic! Chad said it was like a Hot Pocket, but homemade. I thought it was like pizza, just rolled up in a flakier crust.


Pepperoni Cheese Bread

Ingredients:

  • 1 roll refrigerated french bread dough OR 1 loaf frozen bread dough (thawed)
  • Pepperoni (I used turkey pepperoni for a healthier option).
  • Mozzarella cheese
  • Parmesan cheese
  • Egg wash (1 egg white, water)

** Additions--I used Havarti, Provolone, and Parmesan. I added some spicy marinara from Saturday's Pasta Jambalaya, torn basil leaves and fresh sliced mushrooms.

Directions:Preheat oven to 350.
Roll out bread dough and sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, place pepperoni (as much as desired) on top of the cheese.
Carefully roll the bread dough into a cylinder shape. Pinch ends and top to seal. Brush top and sides of loaf with egg wash. If desired, top loaf with cheese, pepperoni, and/or Italian seasoning. Make a few diagonal slices in top of loaf for air to escape while cooking.

Bake at 350 for ~20 min. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
