Easy Stuffed Pizza Rolls Recipe
During the holiday season we cooks have to be ready to serve foods that will suit every guests taste. That's no small fete and it's always a challenge. Especially when it comes to the youngest ones and the picky palates around the table. Every gracious host and hostess knows the importance of planning special memorable dishes for everyone to enjoy. Don't we all associate special meals and favorite dishes with the loved ones who made them? It's one of the most heartwarming parts of my family's holiday meal celebrations.

This was a huge hit in my house! A new favorite for game day!
Liz
Made these when my sons came over last weekend to watch the playoffs. We all loved these pizza rolls!
Deb Lenning
My family loves Sister Schubert's frozen dinner rolls. This recipe looks very yummy. I am going to get the stuff to try. Thank you for the inspiration!
Kristine
Hi there...this looks so yummy!!! I have been looking for recipes to make and freeze for my son after he left for college.....(so he can just reheat and eat) Do you think this would freeze well?? or no?? Has anyone ever tried that?
Melissa
Hi Kristine, you're a great Mom! I haven't tested freezing these Pizza rolls however, my guess is it would work. Also, things like soups, stews, casseroles, chili, spaghetti sauce and pasta also freeze well. You can even freeze breakfast burritos for breakfast on the go. I hope he has a great year.
Kat
Kristine, please let us know if you decide to freeze them, and how they turn out. I love to meal prep and was hoping that these would do well frozen and rethawed.
Ashley @ Wishes & Dishes

Very Nice site
Jessi
Thank you.. I am looking forward to making this. My daughter is hosting a sleepover and I thought this would be a fun dish.
Melissa
Perfect for that, enjoy!
Jessi
any suggestions any using any other style rolls
Melissa
If you prefer, you could use slider buns or another type of roll,

Made this last night, added fresh mushrooms when I was preparing the meat, I think you could easily add your favorite pizza ingredients as long as you can pile it all onto the cheese layer. I have pinned this, we did love it, the rolls did have sweetness that I could do without, I had never purchased them before so I was surprised that they were slightly sweet Parker House style rolls, they were more like Hawaiian style rolls to me.
Melissa
Funny I have never thought of these rolls as sweet. I suppose we do truly experience food individually.
MARYJO REEVES
HOW MUCH GARLIC SALT?? IS IT 1/4-TSP. OR 1/4-TBSP... ?? THANK YOU!... MARYJO
Melissa
1/4 teaspoon
Ann
I was wondering if I could use peperoni instead of ground beef? Thank You
Melissa
You can adjust the toppings to your taste.
Ann
I have a dumb question, do you use a regular pizza pan or do you use a pan that you would use for a deep dish pizza? This looks sooo good! Thank You!
Melissa
I used a regular sheet pan covered with parchment.
Tina
I made these and they turned out perfect! They were gone within 20 mins! Must make again!
Melissa
Oh wonderful I'm so happy you loved these my family does as well. Thanks for taking time to let me know.
gerrie
I just wanted to say that I couldn't wait top make these. I went to the store and bought everything I needed a couple days ago and I tried to make them tonight and I'm so disappointed. The rolls completely fell apart then I tried to cut them in half. I thought maybe I did it wrong but it did the same on the second package. How did you keep them together?
Melissa
Hmmm, Gerrie sorry you had an issue with them. You may try cutting them in half while they're still partially frozen. You can still assemble the ones you have the cheese should act as a glue hiding them together. Just arrange on a serving platter in a circle after baking.
Gerrie
I seriously think that something is wrong with the rolls. Maybe they are old...it's like they are falling apart. I will say that we took the rest of the ingredients and mixed them with 2 rolls of biscuits that we cut in 1/4's ...not the same but it was still yummy!
Melissa
Hi Gerrie, it could have been wow that's too bad. I suppose if they were dry they could fall apart. So happy to hear you were able to salvage your efforts, great job!
Charlene
When you put the top back on do you have to line the separations up with the bottom or can you just cut through to brake apart?
Melissa
I usually follow the separation on the top of the rolls to cut apart. As long as you didn't cut the bottom piece too thin, the cheese will hold it together if you don't get it lined up perfectly.
Cathy
I live in Canada and don't have access to these rolls. We do have frozen dough balls we use at Xmas time for the Land of Nod Cinnamon Buns, do you think these would work? They do seem smaller but I guess you would use more? Sure looks good!
Thanks, Cathy
Melissa
Hi Cathy, since I'm not familiar with that product it's difficult to answer. I would imagine any similar product would work, unfortunately I can't tell you for sure about that particular kind. Let me know if you try it just in case some of my other Canadian friends are needing a good substitution as well.
Melissa
Thanks Melissa!
Melissa Bo
This sounds like a easy and delicious recipe! Pinning to try it soon!
Perfect for entertaining!
Melissa
