Caprese Pizza Pockets
Caprese Pizza Pockets
Fun to eat and easy to make!
Recipe by Rachel’s Healthy Plate
Ingredients
- 2 Gilbert’s Caprese Chicken Sausages, cut into small rounds
- 1 tube of store-bought pizza dough
- Pizza sauce or marinara
- Shredded mozzarella cheese
- Other pizza toppings, as desired, such as peppers, spinach, olives, etc.
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat oven to the temperature listed on the pizza dough.
- Open the pizza dough and roll into a thin rectangle. Cut into 6 equal pieces. Once the pieces are cut, it may be easier to roll each piece out a little more -- each piece should be a 5-6 inch square.
- Leaving a ¼ inch border, spoon a little marinara sauce onto half of each piece of dough. Top with sausage, a sprinkle of mozzarella, and any additional toppings. Fold the dough over so the seams meet.
- Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush the dough with the egg. Sprinkle with extra mozzarella cheese and some Italian seasoning.
- Bake according to the instructions on your pizza dough. Note: it may require a few additional minutes since the dough is stuffed - watch closely and cook until golden brown. Serve with extra marinara for dipping—enjoy!
