Meatball Mummies

Directions

1. Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to get it heating.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, egg, salt, and pepper until well combined.
3. Shape the mixture into 24 small meatballs, each about the same size.
4. Arrange the meatballs on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
5. Bake for 15 minutes, or until fully cooked.
6. While the meatballs bake, dust a work surface with flour and roll out the pizza dough.
7. Slice the dough into strips roughly 1 inch wide.
8. Take the meatballs out of the oven and allow them to cool a bit.
9. Wrap each meatball with a dough strip, leaving small gaps so it looks like mummy bandages.
10. Put the wrapped meatballs back on the baking sheet.
11. Return to the oven and bake for another 10 to 12 minutes, until the dough turns golden.
12. Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes.
13. Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
14. Serve the meatball mummies with the warm sauce and shredded mozzarella sprinkled on top.
