When it comes to comfort food, pizza tops our list. That said, you don't always want to order in, and making a whole pie can be a little intimidating (especially if you only have a toaster oven). These pizza bites are an easy fix for those with a serious craving — which is everyone after looking at that photo!
This recipe from Pass The Sushi is a great quick fix when you're hungry for a post school/work snack. It can even be eaten as a main meal. The idea is simple: Pre-made biscuit dough (homemade is obviously acceptable) is cut into quarters and tossed with a little sauce and cheese. The dough is then placed in a pan and topped with fresh herbs and additional toppings.
When baked up it looks lovely and delicious, and no one would ever guess it was made from pre-made biscuit dough. If you happen to make your own pizza at home, try dividing out dough into small balls and freeze ahead of time. Toss your bag in the fridge before work and they'll be thawed by the time you return and you can make your own version of this smart recipe with all homemade ingredients!

this may sound silly but.. can i use pizza dough as well or does this just work better w/ biscuit dough?
I would assume it states biscuit dough because it comes out of the can (for lack of a better word) fluffier.
Pizza dough from a can tends to be a bit thinner, but it should still puff up. Frozen roll dough might be an easy alternative.
This is a Pampered Chef recipe from years ago including the "Bubble Up Pizza" name.
Trader Joe's also makes a wonderful pizza dough for 99 cents. It's a staple in my household; you can get plain, whole wheat, or garlic-herb. It's in a bag instead of a can.
Wow, retro! That's hilarious that this is an old Pampered Chef recipe!!
I know I made something similar, like way back in the early 90s, with canned biscuit dough but for mini pizzas for a party. I haven't revisited that kind of a recipe since I figured out pizza dough is a snap to make (and yeah, I've heard TJ's dough is good too). Plus canned biscuits are mega-loaded with sodium but ya know, it's probably why they're tasty.
This is not even remotely like a proper pizza. Ugh. Sounds like some of that delicious cheese with added cellulose would be a perfect topping for it. Doesn't anyone actually cook any *real* food round here?
Moules frites - We have an overload of "real" pizza recipes in our archives and feature a new one every few weeks! This recipe never claimed to be a proper pizza, though could be made into such if you so desire.
I'm with you Moules Frites, this looks cheap and nasty
I would never make this, to each her own. However, shouldn't Pass the Sushi give credit for the recipe to Pampered Chef now that she's been "outted"?
I think this is a great idea. No its not super fancy, and as written doesn't require fancy ingredients or lots of work, but it makes food accessible to people who might have otherwise picked the drive through.
If you don't want to make it as written, don't. If you want to make your own biscuit dough or pizza dough and make your own sauce and your own pepperoni or whatever other toppings you feel like using, great. There's no rule that you need to make everything you find posted on the internet, and I'm sorry to see people putting down the idea because its just not what they're looking for.
This actually looks like a good option instead of the large frozen pizzas hubby and I tend to eat. Those are just too big anyway.
I actually made this tonight. Was quick and easy and a hit with my husband and 18 month old. I used pizza dough instead of biscuits.
I've made similar - I think I found it on Annie's Eats? Anyway, you take little bits of pizza dough and wrap it around a piece of pepperoni and mozz (or whatever!). Sprinkle with parm and oregano, bake, and serve with marinara. Everyone loves these at parties. And they're made with whole foods :)
