PUPPY CHOW

6 ounces broccoli crowns, thinly sliced (about 2 1/4 cups) 1/2 medium onion, thinly sliced 1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley 2 tablespoons olive oil 6 ounces extra-sharp cheddar, coarsely grated 1 pound pizza dough, thawed if frozen 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard salt and pepper, to taste Green salad, for serving

Ingredients

Directions

1. Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. In a large bowl, combine the broccoli, onion, parsley, 1 tablespoon oil, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Fold in the cheese. 3. On a lightly floured work surface, shape the pizza dough into a 14-inch circle, spread with the mustard and cut into 8 triangles. Divide the broccoli mixture among the triangles (about 1/3 cup per triangle). Starting at the wide end, roll dough around the filling.

Ingredients 1 1/2 1/4 1 6 2

cup semisweet chocolate chips cup creamy peanut butter cup unsalted butter teaspoon vanilla extract cups Rice Chex cereal cups powdered sugar

Directions

1. Place the chocolate chips, peanut butter, and butter in a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high in 30-second intervals and stir after each session. Continue until the mixture is smooth when stirred. 2. Mix in the vanilla extract. 3. Pour the cereal into a large mixing bowl. Add the chocolate mixture and gently stir until cereal is evenly coated. Pour the coated cereal into a large Ziploc bag. Add the powdered sugar. Seal the bag and shake until the cereal is well coated. Spread on parchment paper or waxed paper. Let sit until cool and chocolate is set. 4. Store the puppy chow in an airtight container on the counter or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

4. Transfer roll ups to the prepared baking sheet, brush with the remaining tablespoon oil and bake until golden brown, 20 to 22 minutes. Serve with a salad, if desired. Save time and make these ahead: Let the roll ups cool, wrap in foil and freeze in a resealable plastic bag up to 1 month. Cook from frozen at 425 F until heated through, 15 minutes.
