PIN IT NOW!
If there’s one meal I can always count on my kids eating (and by eating I mean crushing) – it has to be pizza. They like it in every form imaginable and if they could, would eat it every day. Of course, now that I think about it, so would I 🙂
Growing up I was the resident child cook. I LOVED preparing meals for our family (I know, big shocker there) and one of my favorites was pizza. The one pizza that was sure to please all five kids and the parents, was Cheeseburger Pizza. I can still vividly remember handing off little handfuls of shredded cheese with a cooked piece of ground beef in the center to my little brothers and sister because they were just starving.
It’s still my favorite type of pizza to prepare for my family today but sometimes, it’s fun to switch things up a bit. Pizza Pinwheels are kind of awesome. They start with a crescent roll “crust” and from there you just add your favorite pizza toppings. You don’t have to go the bacon cheeseburger route, although I highly recommend it. You can add peppers, onions, olives, pepperoni – anything at all!
My family happens to be hardcore bacon fans and I have to say, it does something extra special to the standard cheeseburger pizza flavor. This may be the way to go from now on 🙂
The kids love the pizza pinwheels because it has all the pizza flavor in a nifty little package – what’s not to love?

I was wondering why my e-mail from momontimeout.com goes directly to my junk mail instead of inbox. I want it come to my in-box so I don’t miss anything. Maybe you can tell me why. Thank you!
Kristen says
can you freeze this? I have a lb of hamburger meat and thought I’d double the recipe…and freeze one. Just wondered if anyone has tried…sounds yummy!

I haven’t tried Kristen but I can’t think of why you wouldn’t be able to – I’d give it a shot!

Susan Thorne says
I made these tonight and they were really good. I used the can of seamless crescent. The instructions didn’t say anything about spraying the pan with PAM and I wish I had. They really stuck. The looked just like the photo before I took them out! Just a heads up on this 🙂
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
Thanks for the feedback Susan! I’ve added that step to the instructions. So glad you enjoyed the recipe!

Somehow I’m not surprised Gloria 🙂 I was the second oldest but my sister was too busy reading – ha! Thank you!
