Ingredients
  • 1 package (15 count) Athens® Phyllo Shells
  • 15 slices of pizza pepperoni
  • 1/4 cup pizza sauce
  • 3/4 cup finely shredded mozzarella
  • 5 ounces pizza dough (1/2 tube)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Directions

Place the shells on an ungreased baking sheet. Press one slice of pepperoni into each shell. Evenly distribute the pizza sauce among the shells followed by the cheese.
Roll out the pizza dough to the approximate size of the shell tray. With a small, round cookie cutter that is approximately the size of the shell, cut out 15 pieces. Place each piece of dough on top of the filling.
Sprinkle the shells with the seasoning and bake for 8-10-minutes in a preheated oven at 350°F. Serve immediately.
Tips: Create a vegetarian version using your favorite vegetable toppings instead of pepperoni.
Top with a dollop of sauce and garnish with strips of pepperoni.
