Frozen pizza rolls were the MVP of after-school snacks, mostly because I didn’t know any better. I thought a molten cheese burn on the roof of my mouth was just part of the experience. But once I got a taste of homemade bites, I realized I’d been settling for freezer aisle mediocrity. These are crispier, cheesier, and don’t leave you wondering what mystery meat just hit your tongue. You’ll never look at a microwaveable snack the same way again.
