Homemade Calzones

I have to thank my friend over at Nodakademic for posting about her Pinterest food find, homemade calzones. This was a pretty quick recipe (found at Squidoo) which I think will be even better once we break out the pizza stone that we got for our wedding.


Ingredients:
- Pizza Crust
- Ham
- Pepperoni
- Pasta Sauce
- Italian Blend & Mozzarella Cheese

I started off by rolling out the pizza dough onto a sheet of tin foil.  From there I layered the sauce, meat and cheese, then cut the dough edges with a pair of kitchen scissors (don't cut all the way up to filling).


Crisscross the dough until you have a nice little package, and then transfer onto a baking sheet.


Into the oven at 375 degrees for 25-30 mins.  Let it cool a little before you start cutting.  Chris is a huge fan of pizza, so this was right up his alley!


What are your favorite pizza toppings?

  8. My favorite pizza is Hawaiian, though I'm not sure how well that would translate in a calzone. I think I might have to give it a try!

  9. I've always heard about goat cheese, but I don't think I've actually ever tried it before. I think that needs to change!
