What a great project, Erin!! I made a cookbook for the young son of friends of ours and put it in a 3-ring binder, so he (and I) can add to it over the years. I've since given copies to a couple of other kids just starting out in the kitchen and they've had fun with it.
Here's a sample to get them really interested -
* Exported from MasterCook *
PIZZA PINWHEELS
1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
2 c shredded mozzarella cheese -- (8 ounces)
24 slices sliced pepperoni sausage
1 can pizza sauce -- (14 ounce)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
On a large baking sheet, pinch the 8 crescent roll dough triangles into 4 rectangles.
Layer each rectangle with 6 pepperonis and even amounts of mozzarella cheese.
Roll tightly lengthwise and slice each into 4 or more pieces.
Bake in the preheated oven 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve with pizza sauce for dipping.
Prep Time: approx. 20 Minutes. Cook Time: approx. 12 Minutes. Ready in: approx. 32 Minutes. Makes 16 pinwheels (8 servings).
