Aleira Urbina, a student at St. Mary’s University, prepares her grandmother’s specialty dish of Cheesy Pepperoni Pizza Sticks. Aleira considers cooking one of her passions and has been cooking for over 10 years. She will demonstrate viewers how she prepares her specialty dish, and will reveal her best cooking tip to prepare it.

Ingredients:

• 2 sticks of butter
• 1 pizza crust cylinder
• 1 pack of pepperoni
• 10 mozzarella sticks
• 1 can of tomato sauce
• 1/2 tsp. of garlic

Directions:

Before preparing the dish, preheat the oven at 375 degrees for 5 minutes. Melt the 2 sticks of butter in a microwave for 40 seconds, and once it is ready spread it until it completely covers the cooking pan. Open the pizza crust cylinder, spread the dough over the cooking pan, and cut it in 10 rectangles. Put 3 pepperonis on top of each rectangle, then place 1 mozzarella stick on top of the pepperonis. Roll the dough until the mozzarella sticks are completely covered.

Once the sticks are completely rolled, spread the melted butter over the sticks and sprinkle pinches of garlic over the sticks. Put the sticks in the oven and let them bake for 10 minutes. Once ready, take them out of the oven, and put tomato sauce over each stick. Finally, serve and enjoy!
