Pizza Balls

1 16 oz pkg white or whole wheat pizza dough, bring to room temperature
1 c filling (broccoli florets, cooked & chopped; onions; pepperoni; ham; etc.)
2 c mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 jar pizza sauce
olive oil
parmesan cheese, grated

Preheat oven to 425°F.  Divide dough into 16 even pieces.  In a separate bowl combine the broccoli (or whatever addition you choose), mozzarella and pizza sauce.  Roll out each piece of dough into a round, about 3 inches wide, and place 1 heaping tablespoon of the cheese mixture in the center.  Take the edges of the dough and bring them to the center, pinching along the edges to make sure they stick together, then roll into a ball.  Place the ball, sealed side down, in a greased pie plate and repeat these steps making the rest of the balls.  Brush each ball with olive oil and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.  Bake for 25 minutes or until golden.
