Steps:
- Remove the egg roll wrappers from the package and cover them with a damp paper towel. This will keep the wrappers from drying out. Have a small glass of water ready for sealing the wrappers.
- Place one egg roll wrapper on a cutting board. With damp fingers, moisten the outer edges of the wrapper. Place a piece of string cheese diagonally on one corner of the wrapper. Roll the cheese inside the wrapper to the halfway point and then fold the edges over the ends of cheese. Continue rolling, making sure the last corner seals. Place on a sheet pan, cover with a damp paper towel and repeat with the remaining cheese sticks.
- Heat 1 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- While the oil is heating, warm the marinara in a saucepan over medium heat until warmed through. Place in a small serving bowl.
- Fry the egg rolls until golden and crisp, about 1 1/2 minutes, turning regularly. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve alongside the marinara.

Steps:
- Place a pizza stone or upside-down baking sheet in the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch round. Transfer to a cornmeal-dusted pizza peel or another upside-down baking sheet; slide the dough onto the hot pizza stone or baking sheet. Bake 8 minutes. Meanwhile, combine 2 tablespoons olive oil in a bowl with the garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove the pizza from the oven, brush with the olive oil mixture and top with the ricotta and mozzarella. Return the pizza to the oven; bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly, about 6 more minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss the arugula and shallot in a large bowl with the lemon juice, the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Top the pizza with the arugula salad, prosciutto and shaved parmesan. Cut into slices.

BUFFALO FRIED MOZZARELLA BITES
Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network
Categories appetizer
Time 55m
Yield 24 bites
Number Of Ingredients 16
Steps:
- For the mozzarella bites: Cut the mozzarella sticks into fourths, creating bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
- Add the flour to a shallow dish. Combine the eggs and milk in a second shallow dish. Combine the panko, Parmesan and parsley in a third shallow dish.
- Bread the mozzarella by first rolling each piece in the flour, then dunking it in the egg/milk mixture, then placing it in the panko mixture. Use your hands to ensure the entire piece is coated in the breadcrumbs. Transfer to a sheet pan and repeat with the remaining mozzarella pieces. Transfer to the freezer to firm up, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add two inches of oil to a skillet. Heat to 375 degrees F.
- For the buffalo sauce: Combine the hot sauce, butter, Worcestershire sauce and apple cider vinegar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Heat until the butter has melted and the sauce is hot, then remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
- Fry the mozzarella bites in batches until golden, between 45 seconds to 1 minute, being careful not to overcook. Carefully remove to drain on a paper towel and immediately sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Serve hot alongside a bowl of warm buffalo sauce, a bowl of ranch dressing and the carrot and celery sticks.
ARUGULA WITH PROSCUITTO AND BURRATA
Steps:
- Put the vinegar, mustard, egg yolk, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl or 2-cup glass measuring cup. Slowly whisk in the olive oil, making an emulsion. Place the arugula in a large salad bowl, pour on enough vinaigrette to moisten, and toss well.
- Distribute the arugula on 4 dinner plates. Place half a burrata, cut side down, in the middle of the plate and artfully arrange the prosciutto around it (I tear each slice of prosciutto in half lengthwise). Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve.
