Ingredients

Dan-O’s Cheesoning
1/2 tsp Dan-O’s Italian-O Seasoning
1 roll refrigerated pizza dough
Mini pepperonis
8 oz mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 tbsp butter, melted
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Marinara/pizza sauce
ranch dip (below), for dipping or use marinara

Ranch Dip

1 packet Dan-O’s Dips Ranch
¾ cup buttermilk
¾ cup mayonnaise

Preparation Instructions

Preheat that oven to 425°F.
Lightly flour your work surface so your dough doesn’t act brand new. Roll it out into a 12″ x 8″ rectangle—nice and even.
Brush the dough with a little olive oil, then sprinkle it with Dan-O’s Cheesoning or Italian-O.
Grab a pizza cutter and slice that dough into 12 even squares. In the center of each square, drop in ½ tsp pizza sauce, 1 tsp cheese, and whatever toppings you’re feeling—pepperoni, green peppers, onions…you do you.
Now bring it together! Carefully roll the corners up around the filling, pinch it tight, and form a ball. Set each dough ball into a lightly sprayed pie pan and let ’em chill for a second.
In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, garlic powder, and ½ teaspoon Dan-O’s Italian-O or Cheesoning. Brush that buttery goodness all over the dough balls.
Bake for 9–12 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and beautiful.
Serve hot with marinara or Dan-O’s Dips Ranch and watch these disappear.
