Calzone Nation

Calzones. Who doesn’t love them?

My roommate happens to be a bigger calzone fan than one can imagine. She’s never tried to make them herself, however. Neither have I. With that in mind, we attempted the possible.

We used frozen pizza dough and divided them into sections of eight, then rolled them out into seven-inch rounds. For filling, we used sautéed green bell pepper, red bell pepper, broccoli, onion, garlic and a bit of homemade red sauce. We topped that with three types of cheese (mozzarella, pecorino and monterey jack), fresh basil and turkey pepperoni. Delicious!

The roommate knows how to roll.
