Pizza Rolls

These were a special treat growing up.  
My sister learned to make them at a bread making class.  
To assemble, they are just like making cinnamon rolls, but with a savory filling.


FIRST:  Make one Batch of Homemade sandwich bread dough (enough for 6 loaves).  (I use my whole wheat recipe, but use 1/2 whole wheat and 1/2 white wheat.  You can also use all white if you'd prefer).

Pizza Roll Filling
In a food processor, chop the following:
2  5oz pkgs. turkey pepperoni
1 small yellow onion
1 can 2-4 oz black olives (depending on preference)
1 large green pepper

1.  Cut bread dough into approximately 4 equal balls.  Roll out 1 of the 4 balls into a rectangle.  Spread with a few tablespoons of cream cheese.  Then spread 1/4th of the pizza roll filling and then sprinkle with shredded cheddar/mozzerella cheese.  Roll up just like a cinnamon roll and cut into slices about 1.5" thick.  Place rolls onto a cooking sheet (I fit 12-15 rolls on  1  11x17 pan).

2. Let Rise until double.

3. Bake at 375 for 25-30 minutes until tops are golden brown.

4. Serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite marinara sauce.

**These are great to take in a school lunch!  They also freeze well.
