These tasty entrees are perfect for lunches, party snacks, or dinner! Premade pizza dough makes them easy to prepare.

Calzone Roll-Ups
(From a forgotten website--kudos to the original creator, I'm sorry I lost your website!)


1 lb premade pizza dough (Winco has it for $1.48 or you can make your own)
1/2 c. chopped onion
1/2 c. sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 c. green peppers, chopped
1/2 c. red peppers, chopped
1 tbs. olive oil
1/3 c. pizza sauce
1/2 c. diced pepperoni
1 c. shredded cheese, italian blend or mozzarella
1/4 c. black olives, chopped
2 tbs. Parmesan cheese, grated

Allow bread dough to come to room temperature. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Divide in half and allow to rest for 5 minutes.

In a small skillet, saute the onions and peppers in olive oil for 3-5 minutes. Add mushrooms for the final 2 minutes.

Roll each dough portion into a 16 by 10 inch rectangle. Spread with pizza sauce and top with the sauteed vegetables, diced pepperoni, chopped olives, and shredded cheese. Roll up the dough on the long side, pinching the edge to seal. Cut each roll into 12 slices.

Places the slices, cut side down, in two greased 9 inch circle pans. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Cover and let rise for 30 minutes or until doubled in size. Bake at 375 degrees for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown.

Remove from pan to cool on a wire rack. After cooled, place on a cookie sheet in the freezer. Once frozen solid, place the rolls in a labeled gallon ziptop bag.

To serve, heat in the microwave for 2-3 minutes or place frozen in a lunchbag (it will defrost in time for lunch).
