Only 2 smart points each… how awesome is that!!

Easy pizza twists
2PP, 2SP on all 3 MyWW programs
Ingredients
- 1 package pillsbury reduced fat crescent rolls
- 2 Tbsp pizza sauce
- 20 slices pepperoni I use a ziggy's brand referred to in one of my product review posts
- 1/4 cup shredded light cheese I used a 3 cheese blend
- 3/4 Tbsp grated parmesan cheese
- Pinch of italian seasoning
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F, spray a large cookie sheet with non stick cooking spray.
- Unroll your crescent roll dough so you have 4 rectangle pieces of 2 croissants, pinch together any open seems.
- Spread out 1 Tbsp of pizza sauce on top of two of your dough pieces.
- Top each of the two pieces with 10 pepperoni slices and 2 Tbsp shredded cheese.
- Cover with your other two dough pieces. Using a pizza cutter, cut each into 7 pieces, giving you a total of 14 pieces.
- Take each piece one at a time and transport to your baking sheet, just before you lay them down give them a twist using your fingers.
- Sprinkle parmesan cheese and italian seasoning on top and bake in oven for approx 12 minutes. Serve warm.
- Makes 14 pizza twists at 2 PP or 2 smart points on all 3 MyWW programs or 2 points plus each (old program)

Do you know the point value without the pepperoni (I don’t eat meat)? Also, where do you find low fat Pillsbury crescents?
I really enjoy your recipes, especially the meatless ones, as they are hard to find elsewhere – thank you! 🙂
Hi Lynda, glad your enjoying the recipes, I buy my reduced fat pillsbury crescent roll dough at most grocery stores near me.. The pepperoni only adds 4SP to the whole recipe.

A coworker told me about your website the other day. I must say, I am impressed. Thanks for sharing your recipes, they look great. I can’t wait to try some of them. I’m a busy mom and I love how easy many of them are. Quick question. Do you think ground turkey would work as well?
Hi Nicole, glad you found me 🙂 Yes many people sub in turkey in lots of my recipes, just not sure on the points for turkey pepperoni on ground turkey as I never use it .. Hope you enjoy the recipes 🙂
Hi I’m making these today! Do you ever freeze them or do you think they would freeze well?
Hi, sorry for the late reply, I have not frozen them but I think they will be fine to do so 🙂
I love your recipes! They look so yummy and very few ingredients required!
Thank you 🙂
Sadly, this recipe didn’t not work for me and it looked terrible — when I tried to gently twist, all the toppings spewed out the center and went everywhere. Yikes, a major mess and no way to really recover except to throw it in the oven… looking like a mess.
Also, in step 2, don’t roll your dough out on the cookie sheet you just prepped. Thought instinct would tell you you too!
Hi Jen, sorry they did not turn out for you, yes they can be a bit tricky , if I could be in everyone’s kitchen helping them I would 😉 and re: step 2 I did not roll out the dough on the cookie sheet I used, I did in on a separate cutting board.. with a little patience I had no issues putting these together

Is each twist 2 points or 14 twists for 2 points. The serving size wasn’t clear.
I found it! It is 2 points for each. I had to look back into the blog post to find it.
Glad you found it … now let’s talk about how amazing it would be if we could eat all 14 for 2SP 🙂
Hi Sabrina, I wish I could tell you all 14 twists were 2SP lol but that would be in my dreams! Each twist is 2SP
