Kid-Friendly Broccoli and Cheese Pinwheels
An easy recipe for veggie-loaded broccoli and cheese pinwheels, perfect for toddlers, preschoolers, young kids, or the whole family!
Ingredients
- 1 10-15oz pre-made pizza dough
- 1 cup frozen broccoli florets
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (medium or sharp)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Prep and cook your broccoli. Measure out 1 cup of broccoli florets. Add to a microwave safe bowl with a few teaspoons of water, cover, and cook for 2-3 minutes until tender. You can also steam them if you prefer.
- Finely chop broccoli.
- Roll out your pizza dough. I like to do this directly onto a cutting board.
- Evenly sprinkle the broccoli and cheese on top, being sure to get close to the edges.
- Tightly roll up your pizza dough, cut into 1 inch strips. If your pizza dough is round you may need to discard the two ends if they end up very small (I normally do this).
- Place rounds on a greased baking pan about 2 inches apart (or you can use a silicone liner or parchment paper).
- Cook for 15 minutes or until dough is golden brown on the edges. If you are using a different brand of dough, check those cooking instructions or monitor after the 10 minute mark to ensure they don't burn.
- Cool before serving.
