Prep Time 15 minutes mins
Cook Time 45 minutes mins
Total Time 1 hour hr
Ingredients
- Salt
- Pepper
- 2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp dried basil
- 1 can refrigerated pizza dough or one fresh pizza dough
Instructions
- Fire up your oven to 375 degrees F (or 190 degrees C if you’re in the land of maple syrup and Mounties).
- Roll out that pizza dough like you’re auditioning for a pizzeria reality show, then slice it into 2-inch squares—perfect for those who can’t commit to a full slice.
- In a bowl, throw together Mozzarella cheese, marinara sauce, melted butter (because why not?), garlic powder, dried oregano and basil (for that fancy touch), plus salt and pepper.
- Now take each square of dough and wrap it around a spoonful of this cheesy goodness like it’s a tiny present from the carb gods.
- Place these little dough balls in a greased 9-inch cake pan in what can only be described as an artistic circular masterpiece.
- Bake them for about 30 minutes or until they look golden brown and the cheese is bubbling like it’s having its own little party.
- Let them cool for five minutes before serving—if you can resist diving in headfirst!
- EAT IT!

Brian Gerard (Lewandowski) writes books critics call "aggressively adequate"—better than "aggressively terrible" but somehow more concerning. He once traded a MetroCard for a pitchfork on a subway platform and now uses it exclusively for dramatic pointing. He lives on a farm outside Charlottesville, Virginia with three disappointed potted plants, a judgmental pig named Trouble McFussbucket, and a wife who smiles politely at his life choices.

His first manuscript was composed entirely of punctuation marks and confused sketches. He's since published "Not Bukowski" (poems that don't rhyme) and "Slop and Swell from a Festering Mind" (essays so concerning that bookstores check on his well-being). He once spent three hours photographing a rare bird that turned out to be a plastic bag, and he's the only person banned from church bake sales for "weaponized brownies." Inheriting absurdism from Vonnegut and Adams, sprawling narratives from Irving, and weaponized failure from Moore, he writes about conflicted everymen struggling through supernatural chaos.
He has two new, offbeat novels waiting for an agent or a publisher: "Truth Tastes Like Pennies" and "Elliot Nessie."
He remains unconvinced that birds aren't surveillance drones.
More biographic lies...err...info.
