1 package Fleischmann's Pizza Yeast
Lots of Italian Seasoning/ herbs (no measurements, just however much you love!)
Lots of fresh chopped garlic
Cheese
Olives
Olive Oil
Parmesan cheese
Butler soy Curls (or chicken, whatever you prefer)
Sauce
Any other toppings/ fillings you like
Instructions:
Follow the Pizza yeast directions for one batch, on the back of the packet. The only revisions I make are adding lots of fresh rosemary chopped and/or lots of dry italian seasoning and also use a little extra salt so the dough isn't so bland.
Stretch the dough out to an even thickness and start with spreading sauce, then add all of the other toppings and fold dough over, pinching corners together to stick. My husband was so nice to do this part for me! The wrestlin' of the dough:-)
Spray a rectangular cookie sheet/baking pan and transfer the huge hot-pocket (that's what it reminded me of) on the pan. Brush the top with olive oil (this part is very important because it helps the calzone come out crispier & browned), sprinkle with parmesan cheese, and a little extra salt and herbs if you like.
Bake from 400- 425 until golden. I baked it at 425 for about 6 minutes on the lower rack, then transferred to middle rack and baked on 400 until golden brown, just kept an eye on it and made sure it didn't burn.
Soooo easy & soooo delicious!
This recipe makes plenty for two. A Calzone of this size easily could cost $20 at a restaurant, $14 bargain priced. I think my ingredients might have totaled $5.00 at the most. Here's what I had to look forward to for lunch today:
And here's how yummy it looks on the plate:
Enjoy!:)
