Meal in a pizza crust. I love to make a huge batch of these with 3-4 different fillings, freeze them, and pack a few in the husband's lunch. The pizza crust is one my mom has used for years, and the fillings come from playing around with my favorite things to eat. Ingredients:
4 cups warm water |
4 cups wheat flour |
2 tablespoons yeast |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 cup oil |
4 cups white flour |
1 chicken breast, sliced and sauteed |
1/2 cup spaghetti sauce |
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded |
1 lb beef, for stewing |
2 tablespoons brown gravy mix |
1 bay leaf |
1 bunch asparagus |
1/4 lb brie cheese |
1 lb briskets |
1 1/2 cups barbecue sauce |
1 teaspoon liquid smoke |
1 chicken breast |
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup |
1 cup mushroom, sliced, roasted |
Directions:
1. Dough: Mix together water, yeast, 4 cups wheat flour, salt, and oil.
2. Add white flour until you have a dough that follows the spoons around the bowl but still sticks to the sides of the bowl. Let dough rise to double (about an hour), punch down, and shape. I don't let mine rise again once I've shaped it, but it does some rising of its own as it cooks.
3. Fillings: Ooooh, just have fun!
4. Depending on the filling, top calzones for the last 5 minutes of baking with: egg wash, honey glaze, extra cheese.
5. Also, make extra liquid parts when you make the fillings and freeze along with the calzones for a dipping sauce.
6. Be sure to wrap with a paper towel when reheating in the microwave.
7. (reheating in toaster oven is preferable.).
8. Cook calzones at 300°F for 30 minutes.
9. These can be frozen before or after cooking. When cooking a raw, frozen calzone, cook for 50 minutes at 300°F.
