Ingredients

• ✓ marinara sauce
• mozzarella cheese
• egg roll wrapper
• pepperoni
• olive oil
• italian seasoning
• garlic salt

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions.
2. 2 Cut mozzarella cheese into 6-inch sticks.
3. 3 Place 1 egg roll wrapper on a flat surface, positioned to look like a diamond. Add 1 teaspoon marinara sauce, 1 mozzarella stick, and 2 tablespoons mini pepperoni to the bottom third of the egg roll wrapper.
4. 4 Roll up the bottom point over the filling, towards the center of the wrapper. Fold in the left side of the wrapper to cover the center. Fold in the right side of the wrapper to cover the left fold, like an envelope. Roll up the egg roll until just the top point is exposed. Brush some water on the top point and fold down. You may need to brush a bit more water over the edges to create a seal.
5. 5 Repeat for the remaining egg rolls. Brush olive oil over the tops. Sprinkle Italian seasoning and garlic salt over the tops.
6. 6 Brush some olive oil over the air fryer basket. Add egg rolls to the basket seam side-down, without letting them touch each other. Reduce the temperature to 360 degrees F (180 degrees C) and air fry for 8 minutes, flipping at the halfway point. Serve with remaining marinara sauce.

Ingredients

• ✓ marinara sauce
• pizza crust
• mozzarella cheese
• parmesan cheese
• pepperoni
• onion
• italian seasoning
• garlic powder
• red pepper flakes

Instructions

1. 1 Place pizza dough on a lightly floured work surface, and press into a rectangle. Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the dough to within 1/2 inch of the crust edges (you will not need all of the sauce), and top with mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
2. 2 Evenly distribute pepperoni and onion over the cheeses, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes.
3. 3 Tightly roll up the dough to form a log, pinching the seam together to seal. Transfer dough to the refrigerator for 10 minutes to make slicing easier.
4. 4 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
5. 5 Using a serrated knife, slice the log into 12 individual rolls and set onto the prepared baking sheet.
6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until pizza rolls are golden brown in color and the cheese has melted, 10 to 12 minutes.
7. 7 Serve pizza rolls with the remaining warmed marinara as a dipping sauce.

Ingredients

• ✓ marinara sauce
• self-rising flour
• whole milk greek yogurt
• pizza sauce
• pepperoni
• mozzarella cheese
• butter
• parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. 1 Mix flour and yogurt together in a large bowl until it forms a ball. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth, adding more flour as necessary to keep dough from sticking, 2 to 3 minutes.
2. 2 Roll out dough into a 10x14-inch rectangle. Spread with pizza sauce. Cover with pepperoni and sprinkle with cheese, leaving a 1-inch border bare on one long edge of the rectangle so dough can be sealed once it's rolled up.
3. 3 Roll up rectangle starting from one long end and seal roll by brushing a bit of water on the inner edge of the dough. Place roll on a sheet of parchment paper and freeze to firm up and make the roll easier to cut, 15 to 20 minutes.
4. 4 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
5. 5 Slice roll into 1-inch pieces and place on the prepared baking sheet 2 inches apart, reshaping rolls if needed. Brush tops with butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 18 to 22 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.

Ingredients

• ✓ marinara sauce
• russet potato
• salt
• egg
• all-purpose flour
• parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Instructions

1. 1 Place potato in the microwave and cook on high until cooked through, about 7 minutes, depending on the size of the potato.
2. 2 Split potato and remove flesh. Push flesh through a strainer using the back of a wooden spoon in order to achieve a granular texture. Add a pinch of salt and let cool for about 10 minutes.
3. 3 Add beaten egg to potato and stir, using the tines of a fork and trying not to mash the potato. Add about 1/3 cup flour and continue to stir gently with the fork until mixture starts to come together. You may need another pinch or two of flour. Fold mixture with a spatula until dough forms a mass, adding flour as needed. Using your fingers, knead dough gently to form a ball, about 10 seconds.
4. 4 Shape dough on a floured surface into a fat log. Cut log into four pieces. Gently roll each piece using your fingertips to form a "snake" or a long rope of dough, starting from the center and rolling toward the end until dough is about 1/2-inch thick.
5. 5 Cut each rope into 1/2-inch pieces, then roll each piece quickly down the back of a fork's tines to form ridges.
6. 6 Heat marinara sauce in a skillet while you cook the gnocchi.
7. 7 Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and add gnocchi. As soon as they float to the surface (about 30 seconds or so), cook for an additional 14 seconds. Transfer with a slotted spoon to the pan with the sauce. Stir until coated.
8. 8 Serve topped with grated cheese.
