- ½ cup marinara sauce
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 can pizza dough or crescent rolls, refrigerated
- ½ cup pepperoni or any toppings you like mushrooms, sausage, or diced peppers

- ¼ teaspoon Italian herbs

Preparation
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and cover a baking sheet with parchment or baking paper.
Spread the dough on a floured counter. If it’s crescent rolls, break it apart into triangles. For pizza dough, slice it into 8 small rectangles.
Smear a thin layer of marinara sauce on each piece of dough. Add some shredded mozzarella and scatter a couple of pepperoni slices or other toppings over it.
Sprinkle on some garlic and Italian seasoning. Fold each dough piece to make a pocket, then firmly press the edges together using a fork.
