Friday night often is pizza and salad night at our house, and dinner prep for these pizza boats doesn't get much easier. Each roll half can be customized to keep everybody happy, so allow them to choose their favorite toppings. One time it may be pepperoni and tomatoes, then next time might be sausage, onions, meatballs, roasted peppers, olives, or bacon.
