Ingredients

Makes 2 loaves

1 1-pound loaf frozen bread or pizza dough, thawed
2 egg yolks (reserve egg whites for later)
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese (or 6 Cheese blend)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 tablespoon oregano
16 ounces sliced pepperoni
4 cups (8 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese
Optional toppings: 4-ounce can mushrooms, 1 green pepper diced, 3 ounces olives, Italian sausage, bacon bits, browned Italian sausage, pineapple tidbits.
Sesame seeds

Directions

On greased counter, roll out dough into a 15-by-10 inch rectangle. Place the rectangle on a foil-lined cookie sheet.

In a bowl, combine egg yolks, Parmesan cheese, oil and oregano. Brush over the dough.

Sprinkle with pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, mushrooms, pepper, olives and other toppings. Roll up, jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam to seal and tuck ends under.

Place seam side down; with a knife make slits every 2 inches along the top of the dough. Brush the top with egg whites and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Wrap and freeze 1 loaf with plastic wrap (label "350 degrees, 35 minutes"). Bake the other at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with warmed Pizza Sauce.

To serve frozen loaf: Bake frozen loaf at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Serve warm with Pizza Sauce (Sauce can be frozen and placed next to the pizza loaf).
