Calzones

Not the best picture, I must really work on my indoor photography. Or buy another camera. Lets not get me started on that.

They didn't brown light I thought they would but I think that might have something to do with the fact that I was using bread stick dough. Maybe next time I will make french bread dough and use that. But my favorite french bread recipe is not a bread machine so it's not as easy as this one.

This made 10 and between me and the kids there was none left over. I used peperoni inside but really I think you can use anything. The kids suggest more pepperoni, olives and ham. I think mushrooms would have been really good too.

Here is the recipe:
Calzones

Ingredients:
2 Loaves frozen bread dough (use soft Italian bread sticks)
1 1/4 Mozzarella cheese
5 cups Spaghetti sauce

Directions:
Thaw loaves
Divide each loaf into five parts each
Roll each dough piece on a floured board or stretch with your hands, making 10 7 inch squares
Fill with sauce, cheese and whatever else you want. Fold form a turnover, and pinch edges to seal.
Place on greased baking sheet.
Bake for about 15 minutes at 350
Turnovers will be golden brown when done

Judges say: 4 family members and 4 thumbs up.
