Pizza Roll Ups


Ingredients:
  - 1 can Pillsbury Reduced Fat Crescent Rolls (8 rolls)
  - 24 slices Hormel Turkey Pepperoni
  - 4 oz. Cabot 75% Reduced Fat Cheddar Cheese, shredded
  - 1 c. low-sugar spaghetti or pizza sauce
  - 1/8 c. low-fat parmesan cheese, if desired
  - spray butter (16 sprays)
  - garlic salt (~1 tsp)
  - italian seasoning (~1 tsp)

Directions:
  1. Unroll crescent rolls into 8 individual triangles.
  2. Sprinkle each triangle with garlic salt and Italian seasoning.
  3. Add 3 slices of pepperoni, a spoonful of pizza sauce, and 1/2 oz. shredded cheese to each triangle.
  4. Roll up crescents, folding all ingredients neatly inside.
  5. Spray tops of rolls (about 2 sprays each) with spray butter, and sprinkle with garlic salt and italian seasoning.
  6. Bake according to crescent roll package instructions, or until they are brown.
  7. Warm pizza sauce and serve as dip, garnished with parmesan cheese (if desired).
I "healthified" this recipe, making it my own.  Changes include things like low-fat rolls, turkey pepperoni, 75% RF cheese, and the spray butter.  I don't think the lower-fat options make this any less delish, and it sure did turn a fatty-patty recipe into a very WW-friendly one.  Each roll, dip included, is 4 PP.  Can I get a hell yeah?!

This recipe is adapted from several sources--most notably a WW-friend's blog posting and this food.com recipe (where I also borrowed the pic).
