It’s almost 5 pm, and I’m just now posting my Wednesday post! I try to post every mon, wed, and fri, and usually I have it ready to go and scheduled to post… but life has been a bit crazy lately! I really want to expand the site to include homeschooling, autism tips, crafting and quilting… etc. But the idea of all those changes make me super nervous! I really have no idea what I’m doing and definitely don’t have a ton of time to sort it all out. (Any web designers out there that want to get paid in baked goods?) : ) If anyone has any advice, I’m listening!
I’ve been wanting to share this recipe with you for awhile, it’s a really fun dinner for getting everyone involved. You can put out a bunch of toppings and let everyone choose their own filling. Which is my favorite kind of dinner. The kitchen is crowded, everyone is having fun and getting their hands dirty. These are great leftovers as well, they freeze pretty well for lunches (although leftover pizza doesn’t last long around my hubby!) : )
MINI PIZZA CALZONES
shredded cheese ( we usually do mostly mozzerella with a little cheddar)
desired toppings, I used pepperoni, cooked Italian sausage, chopped onions
1 egg, beaten with 1 T water (for egg wash, optional)
Divide dough into balls and roll out in a circle.(I made mine about 8 inches across)
Spread half of circle with sauce and toppings (or mix sauce and toppings all together first)
Fold circle in half and crimp edges closed.
Place on greased cookie sheet.
If desired, brush with an egg wash.
Bake at 400 degrees until golden brown, about 15-25 minutes.
Bake at 400 degrees until golden brown, about 15-25 minutes.
(How long is going to depend on how big or small you made them.)
