Pizza Scrolls

Stardustannie's Note:

A great afternoon snack! If you don't have a favoured pizza sauce use tomato paste and add some dried Italian herbs. Can be served hot or cold...great for the lunch box.

We go to our neighbours every Thursday night, to watch Survivor on the 'Big Screen'. I like to take something with me each week, and after several sweet items, thought these would be a nice change. Well......these WILL be made again. So easy to make and the taste is excellent.....hot or room temperature. Thanks Stardustannie. Made for the Auzzie/NZ Recipe Swap #34

My son had to make a recipe for the international food project in his history class. He was able to choose any recipe from the areas they studied this year, He chose this one. It was really easy & was fun to do with my son. I see this will be one he will want to make over & over again! Its so easy the kids can really put it together by themselves all they will need you for is to have you cut the food and put it in & take it out of the oven.(unless your kids are old enough to do those things themselves. Only few changes I advise is to make the scrolls 1/2inch instead of 1inch to get the 24-36 servings. To convert the cooking temp in (F)= 395 degrees. Oh & in the US if you dont know what a capsicum is, its a red peper. (this really was a challenge since I didnt think to look it up before I went shopping and no one in the stores seemed to have any idea what I was requesting-lol. You do need to spray the pan to keep it from sticking. Other then those MINOR things it really was quite a great recipe to make. Enjoy!

These are scrumptious! I used browned bulk italian sausage fro the ham and added a little leftover minced onion I had in the fridge. Pizza blend was the cheese of choice. These are flaky and very tasty. They also look very impressive for the amount of work you actually put into them making them perfect for an appetizer party! Dh and I loved them and talked about possibly adding some chopped mushrooms and olives to the filling. Thanks for sharing this fabulous recipe Stardustbunnie, it's a keeper!
