Chicken-Bacon Stuffed Pizza Rolls

By -


I made these last week for dinner and all three of us gobbled them up quickly. I mean, chicken, bacon, and cheese all wrapped up...come one, that's going to be good. Next time we would add more cheese, but I was trying to be frugal since the stuff can be expensive. Also I think adding some green onion would have been delectable.

Chicken-Bacon Stuffed Pizza Rolls

1 roll refrigerated pizza dough
1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing mix
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
Cheddar cheese (I used cheddar and mozzarella)
Bacon, cooked and crumbled
1 c shredded, cooked chicken
3/4 c mayo (for ranch)
3/4 c milk (for ranch)

**I actually made my own ranch from scratch. I did have Dan's Ranch mix or something like that to sprinkle on top, and it was WAY too salty. So I think next time I'll either forgo putting any on top, or get hidden valley, because it's not as salty as the stuff we used**

Take 1 tsp of your ranch dressing mix and combine with 1 1/2 tbsp Parmesan. Set aside.
Combine the rest of your mix with the mayo and milk for the dressing.

Preheat oven to heat specified on pizza dough package. Usually it's 400-425 degrees.

Unroll your pizza dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pat or roll the dough so it's about 12" by 8". You're going to want to cut it into 24 squares, so just eyeball it if you need to. Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough into 24 squares.

Place cheese and desired toppings on each square.

When all of your dough squares have cheese and toppings on them, carefully lift up each square and wrap the dough around the toppings.

I grab the four corners first and then squeeze the seams shut. Then place them seam side down in a lightly sprayed pie pan (or similar sized dish). Brush with melted butter or olive oil and sprinkle with the parmesan-ranch mixture.

I baked these in a muffin pan, and it took about 10 minutes, just watch them, until golden brown and the bread is baked.

Serve them warm with a side of freshly made ranch dressing for dipping.

Bon Appetite!

Josh got me to try some lentil soup at Corner Bakery. I was nervous, because I have not liked lentils in the past, but in the past few years I have grown to love many things I hadn't previously. And I liked it! So I immediately went on the hunt for a "copy cat" recipe, and though I have no idea if this is in fact the same, all three of us enjoyed it!  Lentil Vegetable Soup 2/3 c green lentils 1/3 c orange lentils (you can really use whatever lentils you wants) 1 lg onion, roughly chopped 2-3 cloves garlic, chopped 1 lg tomato, chopped 1-2 carrots, diced 1/2 c mushrooms 1/2 bunch spinach or 2-3 big leaves of kale, chopped fine 1/4 c corn 2-4 c vegetable/chicken broth S&P to taste Combine and wash all lentils and set aside. In a pot, heat some olive oil and saute onions, carrots, and garlic till onions are translucent. Add the mushrooms, and some salt. Saute a few minutes until they get soft, then add the tomatoes. Cover and let t...

Easy Shepherd's Pie

1 lb. ground beef 2 cups hot mashed potatoes 1 cup KRAFT Shredded Cheddar Cheese 2 cloves garlic, minced 4 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed 1 cup beef gravy PREHEAT oven to 375ºF. Brown meat in large skillet. Meanwhile, mix potatoes, 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese and the garlic until well blended. DRAIN meat. Return to skillet; stir in vegetables and gravy. Spoon into 9-inch square baking dish; cover with potatoes and remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese. BAKE 20 min. or until heated through. Many of you know Jon and I are picky eaters. This is one recipe we came across in the Krafts Food magazine when we were searching for meals we'd both like. I have never had Shepherd's Pie before, but I liked it. I especially like that it is pretty quick and easy. It tastes good as leftovers too. We haven't mixed the cheese into the potatoes because we didn't really feel like it or added garlic just because we didn't have any, but I'm sure it'd still taste good.
