Subj:  Calzones
From:  Clare CMS

Here's a recipe for the BIG appetite.  This will make 2 LARGE (plate-size) calzones that
are definetly a meal in themselves.

Dough:
1) Dissolve 1 pk yeast in 1 cup warm water.
2) Mix 1 TBSP sugar, 2 TBSP oil, 1 tsp salt, 2 3/4 c flour to yeast and water.   
3) Mix together till smooth.  Knead and cover for  30 minutes.  I cover with clear wrap
tightly.

In separate bowl: (this is what I use for a meaty and cheesy calzones.  The ingredients are
up to you).
1)  Mix 1 small can mushrooms, drained
2)  1/4 green pepper
3)  2 slices of onion
4)  1 jar Ragu (any kind)
5)  1 tsp italian seasoning
6)  1 tsp oregano
7) 1 tsp basil
8)  1/2 tsp garlic salt
9)  4 links of cooked italian sausage
10)  pepperoni

Roll out dough approx. 10" circle.  Place 1 to 2 cups of sauce mix in center of dough.  Add
1/2 cup mozzeralla cheese to sauce in the calzones.  Fold over and crimp shut.

Place on greased cookie sheet.  Brush with melted butter (after 15 minutes of cooking). 
Cook for a total of  25 min @ 375 degrees or until golden brown.  Cover with remaining
sauce and cheese and enjoy !!!
HINT:  this makes an awsome pizza crust as well.
