Top Tips

  • Be sure to shake your pizza rolls halfway through cook time! This helps each side get crunchy and keeps the rolls from sticking together.
  • You can use any brand of pizza rolls for this recipe, but if you’re looking for something a little bit healthier, we like Amy’s Pizza Snacks.

What Do We Mean By “Healthy?”

Our recipes focus on real ingredients and homemade elements. We try to avoid processed flour and sugar, like white flour or white sugar. Our recipes often swap less healthy options (like a commercial, deep-friend tostada) for an easy homemade version.

Our recipes are not necessarily low fat or low calorie, and we aren’t afraid of fat or carbs! Some of our recipes will be “skinny,” low carb, keto, paleo, dairy free, grain free, gluten free, Whole30, or vegan, and they will be labeled when they qualify for any of these diets. All our recipes are easy and family friendly!
