Homemade Pizza Rolls/Pockets

Pizza rolls have been a pajama party tradition on our house every since they came out in the 70's.  I ate them as a kid, my kids have eaten them. They are a hit. They are easy.  However, I happened to read the list of ingredients the other day when Benj was over (doing laundry) and I was surprised that I didn't recognize many (any) of the ingredients. Check these out.

How do you mechanically separate pork from chicken?  That is just plain scary. Do they grow Porkens and then separate them?  Maybe they grow Chigs?  What is mozarella cheese substitute? I don't know.  Anyway, I made the pizza rolls above. They were a hit. They were pretty easy.  I am still experimenting with the wrapper and shape but the inside tasted like a pizza roll.  I didn't really measure this time just went for a consistency thing.  You could make this for as many "rolls" as you want.
 
The Ingredients:
Pot sticker wrappers (next I am going to try won ton wrappers and pizza dough rolled very thin)
Reduced fat pepperoni slices, diced
mozzarella cheese
Marinara Sauce (I really like Mario Battalli's brand)
vegetable oil
 
The method:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Chop pepperoni into very small dice. Add cheese and marinara sauce until thick consistency (like peanut butter) is achieved.  Take a wrapper and starting in a corner add about a teaspoon of filling. Brush edges with water and fold over to make a triangle. Press edges with the tines of a fork to seal.  You can also make rectangles.  Add oil to just cover the bottom of a non-stick skillet.  Heat over med-high until hot.  Add the pizza roll and cook for 1 minute per side. Remove to a sheet tray and bake for approximately 7-10 minutes. Keep an eye on them. 
 
I will update this recipe as I try other wrappers.  Enjoy!
