Ingredients
  

For the Pizza Rolls
  • 1 pound pizza dough (homemade or store-bought) Trader Joe’s pizza dough is a weekday hero.
  • 1 cup marinara sauce Use a good quality marinara.
  • 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese Fresh mozzarella is dreamy but shredded works great.
  • 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Roll out the pizza dough into a large rectangle, about 12×16 inches.
  2. Evenly spread the marinara sauce over the rolled-out dough, leaving a border around the edges.
  3. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the marinara sauce, followed by half of the grated Parmesan.
  4. Roll the dough into a tight log from one of the longer sides and slice it into even pieces, roughly 1-inch thick.
  5. Place the sliced rolls into a greased baking dish, arranged snugly.
Baking
  1. In a bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and the remaining Parmesan cheese.
  2. Brush this mixture generously over each roll.
  3. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
  4. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.

Notes

You can prepare these rolls ahead and bake later. They are also freezer-friendly; freeze on a tray until firm, then transfer to a bag. Bake from frozen with an extra 5–10 minutes.
