Crowd pleaser, semi-homemade, vegetarian, appetizers that are a breeze to make!
Super bowl fever is at an all-time high this week and we are looking forward to watching the game with friends. Are you excited about the game….and the game day munchies? What are you making?
I am making these crusty, warm, cheesy pizza roll ups as appetizers. For this recipe I made a vegetarian filling of onion and cilantro. The combination of onion and cilantro is popular in Indian chaat recipes like Dabeli Style Roasted Sweet Potatoes, Corn Hurda in Papad Bowl and the Weekend Chat with a Scoop, to name a few. It tastes awesome as pizza topping too and you will love the flavor combination in these pizza roll ups.
For the chicken roll ups I am planning on making buffalo chicken filling like I did for the Buffalo Chicken Star Calzone.
I used packages of Betty Crocker pizza crust as it is super easy to use. I rolled out the dough very thin in a rectangle, spread my favorite Trader Joe’s marinara sauce and topped it with grated mozzarella cheese, onion and cilantro.
Roll up and cut. I cut them about ¾ inch thick this time but am going to cut them thinner for game day as there are many other munchies there and these can be quite filling.
I hope you try this easy and moreish appetizer and enjoy the game!
