Last week Leslie and I found something we really liked and came up with a recipe for Pizza Friday, our version of a PULL APART PIZZA. I have seen several variations, (using cut up Rhodes dinner rolls, cut up Pillsbury biscuits...) but our idea is easier, and (probably) tastier.
Our local Super Target carries a "6 Count Mini Pull Apart" roll in the bakery dept. ($2.99) It was great when we had it last week dipped in marinara sauce, so this week we made pizza.
PIZZA PULL APART
Michelle (me) and Leslie
The rolls have 3-4 sections. Pull apart the sections and tear each section into 3 to 4 pieces. Layer in a sprayed 9x13 pan. (You can use a smaller pan and make the "pizza" thicker.)
I drizzled a bit of marinara sauce sauce on it to keep it moist. (O.K. Really it was Hunt's 4 Cheese ;0)
I could have put other pizza toppings on it now, but Doug wanted cheese. So... I generously sprinkled it with (pre) grated mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle the cheese in a way that it melts the pieces together. (If you are building more than 1 layer, put cheese between the layers/pieces.)
I baked it at 350* for about 15 mins., until the cheese was melted and the "crust" was hot.
It took less than 5 minutes from start to oven. And that included going downstairs for a can of sauce. I served sauce on the side for dipping. We had a salad and strawberries.
TA DA!
Almost everyone loved it. (Total credit goes to the Garlic Rolls.) Doug thought it was too garlicky. Emily just did not like it. Debbie thought it was a bit too bready. (She's not a big bread eater.) For everyone else, it was a HIT!
These Target rolls (located by the Naan bread at our store.) are on my "What I buy" grocery list. Perfect (easy) side for soups, stews, pastas, salads...

I definitely thought it was good. Maybe that is what we will have for dinner tomorrow.
It's the greatest. I was going out to dinner and still couldn't stop eating it.
