In less than 20 minutes, and with only four ingredients, you can create and enjoy homemade pizza rolls for two. 

I'm pairing these fantastic little pizza rolls with a Caesar salad topped with homemade croutons.  Making your own croutons is very easy to do, and it is a great way to use leftover bread.

4 ounce can Pillsbury Original Crescent Rolls
4 tablespoons light creamy alfredo sauce
4 tablespoons shredded mozzarella cheese 
mini pepperonis

2. Add 1 tablespoon of alfredo sauce to each crescent roll triangle.
