Meatballs: Pre-heat your oven to 400ºF. Line a large baking tray with foil & spray with non-stick spray. Put ¼ cup of plain bread crumbs into a small bowl.
In a large bowl combine all of the meatball ingredients except for the little mozzarella balls. Stir or mush together with your hands until everything is evenly distributed.
Wrap ~2 Tbsp. worth of the meat mixture around each mozzarella ball & then roll in the small bowl of bread crumbs to coat. Place on the baking tray. (You'll need 16 meatballs for the pizza dough.)
Bake for about 18-20 mins, flipping the meatballs at around 10 minutes.
Remove from the oven & set aside until needed.
Garlic Bread: Leave the oven on 400ºF. Spray a large baking tray or baking dish with non-stick spray. Cut the pizza dough roll into 16 equal pieces (cut the roll in half & then those halves in half, etc.).
One at a time, roll each dough piece into a flat disc & then wrap it around a meatball, pinching & twisting the dough closed. Place the ball, seam-side down, onto the tray or dish. You can leave space between the balls or you can have them lightly touching, either way is fine.
In a small bowl, melt the butter in the microwave for 30 seconds & then stir in the parsley & optional parmesan powder. Brush the butter mixture generously over the dough balls & sprinkle with garlic salt to your taste (you can also simply use garlic powder & salt separately).
Bake for about 12 minutes, until the rolls are starting to turn golden-brown. If you'd like to melt cheese on top, sprinkle it on the rolls in the last couple of minutes.
Serve with warmed marinara sauce for dipping.
