Quick Pizza Rolls

I took a reccomendation from our friend Angela about a magazine and subscribed to Taste of Home Simple and Delicious.  I have treid several recipies and all have been tasty, quick and pretty darn healthy.  This one was called Quick Pizza Rolls but I swapped out the french rolls hollowed out to make a bowl for pizza crust.

The filling for the bowls or pizza is simple and yummy!

1lb ground beef (I used ground sirloin but turkey breast or chicken breats would work)

1/2 cup chopped green pepper

1/4 cup chopped onion

1 can (8oz.) tomato sauce

1 can (6 oz.) tomato paste

1/4 cup water

1 garlic clove minced

1tsp. sugar (I used brown sugar)

1 tsp. Italian Seasoning

1/2 tsp. salt

6 French rolls or 1 large pizza crust

3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (I didn't use near this much cheese)

Cook the meat, pepper, and onion over medium heat until done; drain.

Add the tomato sauce, paste, water, garlic, sugar, seasoning and salt. 

Bring to a boil.  Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered for 10 minutes or until heated through.

Cut 1/4 in. off top of each roll; set aside.  Carefully hollow out bottom of roll, leaving 1/4 in. shell.  Fill each roll with 1/2 cup meat mixture.  Sprinkle with cheeses, relace bread tops.

Place needed number of sanwiches on a baking sheet.  Bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes or until heated through.  Wrap remaining sandwiches in foil; freeze for up to 3 months. 

In my case I brushed my crust with olive oil, topped with meat mix and cheese and baked pizza according to crust instructions.
