Costco is known for its vast selection of food items, ranging from beloved Kirkland-branded products to popular food court items. However, not all of Costco’s frozen snacks are universally loved. Reddit users recently highlighted a particular product that should be skipped: Bellisio pepperoni frozen pizza rolls.
One Reddit post specifically complained that the rolls had “next to no filling in every single one,” backing up the claim with a cross-section showing an almost empty roll. Other users echoed similar frustrations, calling the rolls too “bready” and stating that the only filling inside was a little sauce. Although Bellisio is not a Costco brand, the frozen pizza rolls are exclusively sold at Costco and Sam’s Club, sparking a widespread consensus of disappointment.
In contrast, many Redditors praised Totino’s pizza rolls as the better option, with some suggesting they’re more generously filled. If you’re not a Costco member, you can still order Totino’s online and skip the Bellisio rolls altogether.
DIY Pizza Rolls: A Better Option
If you’re looking to skip store-bought pizza rolls entirely, you can make your own delicious versions at home using Costco products. DIY pizza rolls are quick, customizable, and more flavorful than their frozen counterparts. Here’s how you can create your own:
Using Store-Bought Pizza Dough: Instead of making dough from scratch, use store-bought pizza dough, top it with sauce and cheese, roll it up, and slice into inch-thick pinwheels. For a thinner crust, try using tortillas to create the perfect homemade pizza rolls. Simply layer your favorite toppings inside a large tortilla, roll it up burrito-style, and crisp it up in an air fryer or on a griddle. Then, cut the giant “pizza burrito” into quarters for easy, bite-sized portions.
Using Eggroll or Wonton Wrappers: Another great option is using eggroll or wonton wrappers. Assemble them like you would tortillas, but brush them with an egg wash to help them crisp up. These wrappers bubble and puff up nicely when cooked, creating a more satisfying texture.
You can fill your DIY rolls with shredded cheese, cured meats, and store-bought pizza sauce. Costco has plenty of options to make your homemade pizza rolls flavorful and just the right amount of cheesy.
In the end, while Bellisio’s frozen pizza rolls may not be worth the freezer space, making your own pizza rolls with ingredients from Costco can be a far tastier and more satisfying alternative.
