3. With a pastry brush, gently brush the top surface of the dough with one tablespoon of olive oil.
4. Evenly spread the tomato sauce over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
5. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese across the sauce-laden dough.
6. Top with finely chopped bell peppers, red onions, and thin mushroom slices.
7. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
8. Starting from one of the shorter edges, carefully roll the dough into a tight log.
9. Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into 1-inch wide Low-Calorie Pizza Rolls.
10. Place the rolls on a baking sheet, leaving space between each.
11. Brush the tops with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
12. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the Low-Calorie Pizza Rolls turn golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly caramelized.
13. Remove from the oven and let cool for a couple of minutes before serving.

Tips

1. For an added touch of freshness, sprinkle some freshly chopped basil over the top of your Low-Calorie Pizza Rolls right after they come out of the oven.
2. While we’ve suggested some classic fillings here, feel free to get inventive! Think zucchini, olives, or even some spicy jalapeños if you’re into that heat.
3. Always opt for low-sodium ingredients when available. It’s a great way to keep those sneaky salt levels in check.
4. If you’re storing leftovers, ensure the rolls cool completely before popping them into an airtight container. They’ll keep in the fridge for 2-3 days.

Serving Suggestions

• Pair these delightful Low-Calorie Pizza Rolls with a fresh green salad drizzled with a light vinaigrette.
• Consider serving them with a side of low-fat Greek yogurt or light sour cream for a creamy dip.
• Want to kick up the heat? A little chili flake on top or a side of spicy salsa can do the trick.
