Broccoli Pizza Roll

I had some left over pizza dough from making pizza on Friday night and wanted something fun to eat so I used some of the dough to make this broccoli roll, the broccoli could be substituted with pretty much anything but I think the broccoli is the yummiest ever! And as a bonus Elianah thought this "bread" was super yummy, and while she does like her veggies she devoured this down! To make it a bit healthier switch to whole-wheat flour based dough, we haven't changed over to that yet but really should.

Roll out your dough (I made my own)
Brush lightly with olive oil
make a thick layer of chopped broccoli (I used my PC chopper - love that thing!)
sprinkle with your favorite cheese(s) - (I used mozzarella but swiss, cheddar etc would be just as good)
Roll tightly and place on baking sheet with seam down (it might burst depending on how thick your dough is and hos tight you wrap)
Baste with egg for a more golden color
I added some pepper, oregano and garlic to the top of the dough for an extra kick
Bake at 375 for 15 mins
cut into thin slices and enjoy!
