A family favorite dinner is Calzones! My kids and husband loves my easy calzone dough recipe and requests it often. You can stuff these yummy dough pockets with everything from pizza toppings to shredded roast beef, vegetable or even just cheese.
The only thing you have to remember is to give yourself a couple hours ahead of time to mix the dough and then let it rise before rolling out. Plus, making your own homemade pizza is not full of preservatives or additives. You can actually read all the ingredients.
Calzone Dough Recipe:
Two hours before baking, mix dough and set aside in a warm place to rise. If you kitchen is really cold you can let it rise covered, in the oven turned OFF.
- 2 tbl. yeast
- 2 cups warm water
- 2 tbl. olive oil (you can use canola or veg. oil too)
- 2 tsp salt (I use 1 1/2 to cut the sodium a bit)
- 2 tsp sugar
- 5 cups flour
