Ingredients
1pizza dough(see notes)
½ cuppizza sauce
3 ½ ouncesthinly sliced ham
½ cuppineapple tidbits
10ouncesshredded mozzarella
2 tablespoonsminced chives(optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
Form the pizza dough into a rectangluar shape. The backside of an 18"x13" baking sheet works great for this.
Spread the pizza sauce over the dough, leaving ½ inch without the sauce at one of the short ends. Add the ham, pineapple, and mozzarella over the sauce.
Roll the pizza, starting at the short end with the sauce right to the edge. Use the edge without the sauce to seal the roll, pinching the dough together a little, if necessary.
Cut the pizza roll into 8 equal pieces. Place the pieces on a non-stick or parchment paper-lined pan. Bake for 20 minutes, until the pizza dough is cooked. Sprinkle the top with some minced chives, if using.
