Calzones

Calzones make me happy and now they can make you happy, too! 

To me the best part about these calzones is that you can personalize them any way you like. You could add mushrooms, black olives, bell peppers, chicken, and if you are feeling really CRAZY you could even use pesto sauce instead of tomato sauce! But to make the calzones I made, these are the ingredients and directions:

Ingredients:

1 small can of tomato sauce

1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese

½ cup of cooked sausage ( I brown this, but leave it in big chunks)

½ cup of pepperoni

1 refrigerated thin pizza crust (in the section with the biscuits)

2 tablespoons of Italian seasoning (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven according to package  (I think it’s 400)

Spray your largest baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray

Roll out the pizza dough on to the baking sheet and cut it in half.

Spread enough tomato sauce to cover the pizza crust- leave about ½ inch of the pizza crust bare all the way around the edge.

Spread the cheese to cover the sauce.

Spread desired amount of pepperoni’s and sausage onto each half of the pizza crust. ** Only put meat and veggies on half of the half of pizza crust**

Fold the meatless part of your pizza crust over the part that has meat on it.

Seal edges with a fork.

Sprinkle Italian seasoning on the tops.

Bake for 10 minutes, take it out and enjoy! J

** You use VERY little of the tomato sauce, so what you can do is put the left over sauce in a freezer bag, pop in the freezer, and use it next time you need it! L
