Pizza Roll Bites

These are so simple and so good, I imagine you will make them often.

You can adapt it pretty much to your tastes and then just stand back and watch them go.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 pkg. egg roll wraps
  • 1 pkg pepperoni slices
  • 6 oz or so of shredded mozzarella cheese
  • oil for frying
INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. Lay out a wrap and place 3-4 slices of pepperoni across the center diagonally. 
  2. Add about 2 tbsp shredded cheese.
  3. Roll up. At the edge, using a small bowl of water, dip finger in water and draw down the edge, then roll onto the wet edge and seal. Press down the ends but don't worry about making them secure, the rapid fry causes the wrap to swell up and seal the ends just fine.
  4. Drop in oil running at about 350, about 1 inch deep in a cast iron fry pan. (Can use a deep fryer, but I don't think you can do more than 2 at a time that way. I got 3 comfortably in the fry pan)
  5. Fry for about 1 minute and then turn over with tongs. Lightly brown on the rest, and remove to a rack to cool and allow extra oil to drip off. 
  6. Continue until you are out of either pepperoni or wraps.
SERVES: 8 for appetizers

NOTES: These will freeze perfectly. Just lay them on a rack in a 400 oven, watching carefully until warmed through. Don't leave too long or they will burst and the cheese will run out. Also, you can add bits of chopped veggies of your choice (I would cook them first). Or do cooked meats and other cheeses.
