I’ve totally got parties on the brain. Halloween parties, tailgating parties, holiday parties…parties just to have a party! How about you…do you love parties? One of my favorite parts {ok, my totally favorite part} is all the yummy food and drinks. I mean a party is nothing without something delicious to eat and drink while there, right?! These bacon spinach roll ups are absolutely perfect for any type of party or if you are just feeling a little finger food for lunch or dinner!
One of the best things about these bacon spinach rolls up is how easy they are too make. I love adding in healthier items like spinach and other vegetables when I can because it makes me feel just a tad better about eating outside of my normal paleo plans.
Ingredients for Bacon Spinach Roll Ups:
1 pre-made refrigerated pizza crust
1 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed of excess moisture
1 1/2 cup spinach artichoke dip
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
1 cup crumbled bacon pieces
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded Gruyere or other Swiss cheese
Let’s Make It:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick foil. Set aside.
2. Roll pizza crust out into large rectangle. Spread artichoke dip on top of crust. Top with spinach, red pepper, bacon and mozzarella cheese. Roll pizza dough up into large log and wrap in plastic wrap. Freeze for 10 minutes.
3. Remove roll from freezer and slice into 1-2 inch thick slices. Place on prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the top of each piece with shredded Gruyere cheese. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove and enjoy!
I used a premade artichoke dip from our local grocery store to make this super easy to put together. You can use a homemade version if you prefer though. Just make sure that the homemade version is on the thicker side.
What are some of your favorite party foods? Do you love adding in a little extra serving of vegetables when creating recipes?
