Pizza Roll Ups

I'm always looking for new ideas to keep the kid's lunches not only interesting and fun for them, but nutritious. We haven't bought school lunches for about two years now. Even with the recent changes to school lunches to make them more nutritious, I still don't want my kids eating the packaged, processed foods the school cafeteria serves. I make their lunches everyday but you can only send sandwiches with them to school so many times before they get sick of them. One of the things I have started sending with them is crescent roll ups. This 'recipe' or really just idea for the kids lunches uses packaged crescent rolls, pepperoni, and sliced provolone/mozzarella cheese.



Directions:

Roll out the crescent dough without separating any seams. Press the seams together with your fingers and roll dough flat to about 1/4" thickness.

Using a pizza cutter, slice the dough into 1" strips.

Place 3 pieces of pepperoni on each strip.

Slice the cheese into 1" strips and lay over the pepperoni. Roll up the dough and place on a baking sheet.

Cook according to the crescent dough packaging or until golden brown.
