Here’s a fun twist on Pizza for the kids, well – for me too.

PIZZA TURNOVERS

4 servings

 

1 can (10 oz) refrigerated pizza crust dough

¼ cup pizza sauce

¼ cup finely shredded carrot

24 slices pepperoni (1 to 1¼ inches in diameter)

1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

2 slices mozzarella cheese (1 ½ oz), cut in half

 

Heat oven to 400°. Roll pizza crust dough on lightly floured surface into 12-inch square. Cut dough into four 6-inch squares.  Spread about 1 tbsp pizza sauce on each square to within ½ inch of edges.  Top half of each square with carrot, pepperoni and cheeses.  Fold over half of each square over filling; press edges to seal.  Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until light golden brown.  Serve warm.
