Ingredients

  • cup no-salt-added tomato sauce
  • ½ cup part-skim shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 4 mushrooms sliced
  • 4 Pero Family Farms® mini sweet peppers sliced
  • 1 pre-made fresh pizza dough

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425ºF.
  • Spray large baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Use 4-inch round cookie cutter to cut rounds.
  • Spoon 1 tsp. tomato sauce in middle of each round.
  • Add ½ Tbsp. cheese, 4 quarters of pepperoni, mushroom slice and 2 pepper rings.
  • Moisten edges of dough with water.
  • Fold dough over filling and press to seal.
  • Use the tines of a fork to crimp and further seal the edge.
  • Place pizza pockets on large baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
  • Poke the top of each with fork.
