Notes

Storing Pizza Rolls:
  • In the Fridge: Let the pizza rolls cool completely before transferring them to an airtight container. They can chill out in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • In the Freezer: For a longer shelf life, place the cooled pizza rolls in a single layer on a baking sheet to flash freeze them. Once they’re solid, transfer them to a zip-top bag or airtight container, and they’ll be good to go for up to 2 months.
Reheating Pizza Rolls:
  • In the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pizza rolls on a baking sheet and warm them up for about 5-10 minutes (a bit longer if they’re coming straight from the freezer) until they’re hot and crispy.
  • In the Microwave: If you’re in a hurry, you can use the microwave. Just know they might not get as crispy. Place the pizza rolls on a microwave-safe plate, and heat them on high for 30-60 seconds or until they’re hot all the way through.

  1. Pizza is always on my menu. My family just loves it, and we make it way more often than we order it. These pizza rolls look insane. So good. My brother-in-law, who’s a fan of meaty pizza, would call these “meatzza rolls.” Every time I see a meaty pizza now, I always call it a meatzza. Ha! 🙂

  2. Oh goodness those are gorgeous!! My hungry family would love it if I made these. Will have to do so this weekend!

  3. We do pizza Fridays most weeks too!!! My husband grew up near Chicago, so I have had all of those and man are they good. Then he had a pizza place with his brothers for a year. So I totally understand the fun of making your own. These look so crazy good. Pinning 😉

    1. Thanks so much dear and I love that your husband grew up near Chicago! Neighbors!!

  4. We love pizza rolls and yours look absolutely perfect. My hubby and I never really order pizza either – homemade pizza is so much better and takes almost no time to make. Happy Friday!

    1. Thanks so much Kathi and I agree about homemade pizza! What is the point to even buying takeout anymore? It is so easy to make at home!

  5. Oh wow, I want these pizza rolls! My husband and I love to make pizzas too but we don’t do it that often. Definitely need to add these fun pizza rolls too our “pizza night” menu! 🙂

    1. Yes and they are so fun to make too! It’s a great way to get the hubbys involved in the cooking.

  6. OM freaking G! I made something similar a while ago but these look freaking awesome! I think I’m about to try one of your recipes for the first time. Dang I’m hungry!

  7. You always surprise me with your rolls (can you believe I’ve never rolled anything!) and with pizza you can never go wrong. Delicious!

  8. My brothers’ favorite pizza is three meat. I think these rolls would satisfy them! The two “s” – simplicity and sausage – make our world go round! 🙂

    1. Haha I love that Mary- simplicity and sausage! I think those are my husband’s “s” too!
