Calzones

Nathan was hunting tonight so I needed a fairly quick dinner idea and wanted something different than usual. I was also home for the day and when i get stuck at home it seems like I always want to make homemade bread! So I stumbled upon a pizza dough recipe in a cookbook and then googled things to do with pizza dough! Calzones seemed like a great idea when I saw them so I tried it out.
Filling:

• Whatever your favorite pizza fillings are.
• I used
• Sauted onions and bell peppers
• Sausage
• Pepperoni
• Moz. Cheese

Pizza Dough

1 pkg. reg. or quick-acting active dry yeast (2 1/4 tsp if you have a jar instead of packets)
1 c. warm water
1 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 tsp. salt
2 3/4 to 3 1/4 c. all-purpose flour

Dissolve yeast in warm water in a bowl. Stir in sugar, oil, salt and 1 cup of flour. Beat until smooth. Mix in enough remaining flour to make dough easy to handle. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Place in greased bowl; turn greased side up. Cover and let rise in warm place until almost double, about 30 minutes. (I actually let mine sit longer because Nathan and I had to run an errand.)

After the dough has been able to rest, punch down dough; divide into 6 equal parts. Roll each part into approx 7 inch circle on lightly floured surface. Take the spaghetti sauce and spread over half of each circle to within 1 inch of edge; top with fillings of your choice and cheese. Be careful not to over fill them or your dough will stretch out and bust! Carefully fold dough over filling; pinch edges to seal securely ( I used a fork along the edges to crimp them together). Place on greased cookie sheet; let rest 15 minutes. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Brush with egg. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Yield: 6 sandwiches, 355 calories per sandwich.
