Spicy Egg roll

I made apple roll and simple parmesean roll the same way.For apple roll , i used appleslices with some sugar,cinnamon,nutmeg and limejuice.For parmesean cheese roll, just sprinkled some parmeasean cheese :)).In the case of other swirls, i made kale+parmesean swirls.I mixed finely chopped kale greens with some salt,pepper and parmesean cheese and sprinkle them into the dough.For the tiny square pizzas, i used onions,tomatoes and cheese.

I gave egg wash for some of the above items and have to say it really makes a difference.
