The most popular is the pinwheel samosa. Continuing this tradition, I am posting a pinwheel pizza recipe made using bread pinwheel rolls.

Furthermore, some more related and additional tips, suggestions, and variations to the pinwheel pizza recipe. Firstly, this recipe is inspired by the traditional dough-based pinwheel pizza. I have replaced the dough with leftover bread which should give the same texture and taste. But you may use the same recipe to prepare the traditional dough-based pizza. Secondly, avoid using wheat or multigrain bread for this recipe. A simple sandwich-based bread should be perfect for this recipe. Lastly, in terms of toppings, it is open-ended. You may add any desired vegetable or meat toppings for this recipe as you wish. However, do not overcrowd it and keep it balanced.
