Pepperoni and Bacon Pizza Rolls
"There are plenty of good pizza roll recipes but none of the fillings suited my family's tastes so I came up with this one. If you prefer you can replace some of the meat with sauteed vegetables such as mushrooms and peppers."
- Ready In:
- 40mins
- Ingredients:
- 5
- Yields:
-
24 pizza rolls
- Serves:
- 24
ingredients
- 8 ounces bacon, sliced 1/4 inch
- 12 ounces pepperoni, mild, cut into 1/4 inch dice (buy a chunk at the deli and peel the skin)
- 1 cup pizza sauce (I use Freezer Pizza Sauce, purchased is fine)
- 6 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded (bagged pre-shredded pizza cheese is good)
- 24 egg roll wraps
directions
- Fry bacon until just crisp and drain on paper towels. Crumble when cool.
- Wipe the bacon grease out of the pan with a paper towel and fry pepperoni in same pan. Drain on paper towels.
- Combine bacon, pepperoni, sauce and cheese.
- Working with 4 wrappers at a time place 2 heaping tablespoons of filling on each wrapper. Brush all 4 edges with water. Roll one corner over the filling, fold in the 2 sides and then roll up completely.
- Heat an inch of vegetable oil in a large deep skillet to 375 degrees. Fry 4 wrappers at a time. When both sides are golden remove to a baking sheet lined with newspaper and paper towel to cool.
- These may be eaten immediately or frozen. To reheat place in a single layer on a baking sheet in a 350 degree oven until warmed through.

We will be making these again! We tried some with sausage instead of bacon and we like both. We used a jar of meat flavored spaghetti sauce, but I think we will use plain next time because the flavor was a little too rich. I fried them in about 1/2 inch of veg. oil in a cast iron pan for about 3 min. on each side. Even my husband liked these! I made this for PAC '08. Thank you for making pizza night more interesting!

I was born in a small Canadian prairie town but was raised in the city. Country living appeals to me more and more and now I think I have the best of both worlds, living just outside the city but within a 30 minute drive from downtown.
I enjoy the wildlife I see out my kitchen window and my vegetable and flower gardens in the summer. And I love cooking with the produce from my garden, although there always seems to be too much at once. Learning to can became a necessity with all those beautiful vegetables and I now really enjoy making pickles, relish, salsa, jams and whatever else strikes my fancy.
I have 2 teenage sons and cooking to suit everyone's taste is always a challenge. Recipezaar has certainly made life easier in that regard, with so many great recipes to choose from.
