Calzones!
Calzones are great because they are so easy to make and you can throw whatever you want in them! After making these the first time (thanks to inspiration from Jessica found here), we made them again for our big Midwest road trip. They were pretty good even cold out of a cooler.
Calzones
pizza dough – I’ve only used the canned kind and got 4 fairly large or 6 smaller calzones out of 1 can. I want to try to use some homemade dough sometime…
toppings of your choice
Varieties we have tried and LOVED:
Besto-Pesto – Inspiration for this guy came from the Sunset Grille‘s Besto-Pesto sandwich
Cooked chicken
Lots of pesto
Sauteed Mushrooms
Provolone cheese
Pulled Chicken w/ Bacon and Cheddar
Pulled chicken – I cooked chicken breasts in BBQ sauce for about 3 hours on Low then shredded the chicken
Bacon
Cheddar Cheese
Preheat oven according to directions on dough.
Roll the pizza dough out and cut into however many calzones you want to make (kitchen scissors work great for this!). Roll dough out.
Put some foil on a cookie sheet and spray with PAM or olive oil.
Place dough pieces on foil and spoon some topping onto 1/2 of each piece of dough.
Fold the dough over and be sure to seal it shut.
Bake according to directions on dough.

These look so good. Can’t wait to make these once it finally starts feeling like spring around here!
I love veggie burgers, this looks like a fantastic dinner option!
definitely delicious! i’ve been meaning to make a batch of burgers that I can stash in the freezer… these might have to be it 🙂
Dam from the look is so yummy .Cant wait to get it in my stomach.Thanks mate for such a dish…
This is a wonderful idea. I have never thought of using sweet potatoes in veggie burgers and I am thinking about it now.

Definitely check them out. Sweet potato veggie burgers are where it’s at!
I’ve tried these and love them! however, how do you make them look so good and stay together? Mine are really wet (even after adding a lot more flour) and stick like crazy to my skillet. Any suggestions?
