These sliders really taste like pizza (as they should) but with a hint of sweetness from the Hawaiian rolls. Trying to separate them can get messy but they are absolutely delicious.

Ingredients

  • ½ cups (6 oz.) finely pre-shredded low-moisture part-skim mozzarella cheese: 1 piece
  • (about 3 1/2 oz.) finely pre-shredded Italian cheese blend: 1 cup

  • black pepper: 0.25 tsp
