Pepperoni Pizza Rolls Recipe

Prep: 20 min. Cook: 5 min./batch

Yield: 14 Servings

20 5 25

Ingredients

1 package (3-1/2 ounces) sliced pepperoni, chopped
1 cup chopped fresh mushrooms
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon pizza seasoning or Italian seasoning
14 egg roll wrappers
14 pieces string cheese
Oil for deep-fat frying
1 can (15 ounces) pizza sauce, warmed

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the pepperoni, mushrooms, green pepper, Parmesan cheese and pizza seasoning. Place an egg roll wrapper on a work surface with a point facing you; place a piece of string cheese near the bottom corner. Top with about 2 tablespoons pepperoni mixture.
Fold bottom corner over filling. Fold sides toward center over filling. Using a pastry brush, wet the top corner with water; roll up tightly to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers, cheese and filling.
In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry egg rolls, a few at a time, for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve with pizza sauce. Yield: 14 egg rolls.
