“Garbage Bread” Recipe 🥖🧀
Garbage bread is a fun, stuffed bread filled with whatever leftovers or favorite ingredients you have. It’s similar to a giant pizza roll—crispy outside and cheesy inside.
Ingredients
- 1 tube refrigerated pizza dough
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup cheddar cheese
- ½ cup pepperoni or cooked sausage
- ½ cup cooked bacon bits (optional)

Roll the pizza dough into a large rectangle on a lightly floured surface.

Spread the fillings evenly over the dough:
- cheeses
- meats

- a little pizza sauce if desired
Leave about 1 inch of space around the edges.

Roll the dough tightly like a jelly roll to form a loaf.
Pinch the seams and ends closed.

Bake for 25–30 minutes until golden brown.
