Pizza swirls

This is really easy to get kid's help with making it!

Frozen bread dough, thawed (We used Rhodes brand)
1/2 cup pizza sauce
2 cups mozzarella cheese
1 package pepperoni, chopped
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Roll out the bread dough into a thin rectangle. Place a little of the pizza sauce on, then toppings. Roll up dough exactly like you would if you were making cinnamon rolls. Slice and place on greased baking pan/stone. Repeat until all ingredients are gone.
Bake on 375 degrees for 15ish minutes, or until they're starting to brown.

Italian breadsticks

1 package of active dry yeast
1 tbsp sugar
1 1/4 cup hot water, divided
1/4 cup olive oil
3 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp salt

TOPPING:
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shred
2 tsp basil, chopped
1 tsp crushed garlic
1 tsp oregano, chopped
1 egg
1/4 cup water

Mix together all ingredients for dough. Cover with plastic wrap and a dish towel and place in a warm place in your kitchen, that's free of drafts, for about an hour, or until dough doubles.

In another small bowl, mix together all ingredients for topping, making sure to mix very well. Set aside

Punch dough down, half it, and roll one half on a floured countertop, into a rectangle. Pour half of topping over top. Slice rectangle into strip. Twist each strip and place on baking pan/stone. Repeat with other half.

Place breadsticks in oven preheated to 350 degrees. Bake until slighly browned-about 15-20 minutes.
