Description

A golden, crispy pizza roll stuffed with layers of ham, salami, pepperoni, and gooey melted cheese. Perfect for game nights, parties, or an easy Italian dinner!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce (optional, for dipping)
  • 6 slices ham
  • 6 slices salami
  • 6 slices pepperoni
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup provolone cheese, sliced or shredded
  • 1 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat & Prep:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Lightly flour a surface and roll out the pizza dough into a rectangle (about 10×14 inches).

2. Layer the Fillings:

  • Evenly layer ham, salami, and pepperoni over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
  • Sprinkle mozzarella and provolone cheese evenly over the meats.

3. Roll & Seal:

  • Carefully roll the dough tightly from one long side to the other.
  • Pinch the seam closed and tuck in the ends.
  • Place seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

4. Add Toppings:

  • Brush the top with melted butter.
  • Sprinkle with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Make small slits on top to allow steam to escape.

5. Bake:

  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
  • Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

6. Serve:

  • Garnish with fresh parsley.
  • Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • Dough Tip: If using store-bought dough, let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before rolling.
  • Cheese Variations: Swap provolone for cheddar or fontina for a different flavor.
  • Extra Flavor: Add sautéed onions, mushrooms, or roasted red peppers for extra texture.
