Pizza Wheels

Makes 32 wheels
Time 1 hr 10 min
This recipe comes to us courtesy of the Renegade Lunch Lady Chef Ann Cooper and her book Lunch Lessons: Changing the Way We Feed our Children. These pizza wheels are fast and easy to make, and the perfect size for a snack that won't interfere with dinner. Of course we prefer to see families make the dough from scratch, but we know it's not always possible. Substituting 1 pound of store-bought frozen bread or and pizza dough works great as well.

Method

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

In a small bowl, combine milk and yeast. Set aside for 5 minutes.

In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine flour, salt and oil.

Add milk and yeast mixture, and knead until dough is smooth, about 5 minutes. Alternately, combine ingredients in a bowl and knead by hand for about 10 minutes.

Divide dough into two equal pieces and set aside on a floured counter.

On a floured surface, roll one piece of dough to a 12x16-inch rectangle and spread to the edges with tomato paste.

Top with half of the onion, pineapple, ham, cheese and parsley.

Roll rectangle lengthwise, jelly-roll style, cut into 16 slices each and transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.

Repeat with the second piece of dough and remaining onion, pineapple, ham, cheese and parsley.

Bake until golden brown and cooked through, about 25 minutes.
