Calzones
Thaw frozen loafs of bread dough. Divide each loaf into 5 parts, each. One at a time, roll each dough piece on a floured board or stretch with your hands, making squares. Fill half of rolled dough with toppings of choice (including either a slice of pre-sliced sandwich mozzarella or shredded mozz). Fold each dough square to form a turnover and pinch to seal. Individually bag each calzone. Bake frozen. Place 2" apart in sprayed pan, bake at 350 for about 20-30 minutes. Serve warm spaghetti sauce over calzones. Enjoy.
