Vegetable Calzone
Calzone is just a folded pizza with any variety of filling. This one features a garlic/sweet potato filling with mushrooms, peppers, celery and onion and a touch of basil pesto. Serve it in a pool of Marinara sauce. It’s a real flavor festival!
Make some pizza dough today 2 hours before you wish to dine. It can be a great adventure for kids too. Use 1/2 of the dough to make the crust for today’s calzone. Roll out a second crust and freeze it (or freeze the dough as a ball).
