1cupmozzarella cheesefreshly shredded
1/2cuppepperonicut into quarters
1/2cupprecooked baconcut into 1 inch pieces
1/4cupgreen pepperdiced
1tbspfresh parsleychopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray and set aside.
Lightly flour your counter and unroll the pizza crust. Roll it into a 12 by 16-inch rectangle.
Spread the marinara evenly over the dough, leaving about 1 inch bare along both long edges.
Sprinkle the Italian seasoning over the sauce. Top with the mozzarella, pepperoni, bacon, green pepper and parsley.
Starting at one long edge, roll the dough up tightly into a log, keeping the toppings tucked in. Cut the log into 12 one-inch pinwheels with a pizza cutter or serrated knife.
Set the pinwheels 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until the tops are golden brown. Let cool 2 to 3 minutes before moving them, and serve with warm marinara for dipping.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 350°F oven or the air fryer so they crisp back up.Swap in any pizza toppings you like, chopped small enough to roll.
