MAKES 8 CALZONES |
Step 1
Divide dough into 8 portions. Heat a large skillet over
medium heat; add sausage. Cook until brown and crumbly; drain fat. Preheat
oven to 425' F. Grease a baking sheet.
Step 2
Stir onion, garlic, basil, oregano, and tomato sauce into
skillet; simmer for 10 minutes. Roll each dough piece into a 5-inch circle.
Spoon sausage mixture onto each circle; sprinkle with cheeses.
Step 3
Moisten edges of dough with water. Fold dough over to
enclose filling; press to seal. Place on prepared baking sheet.
Step 4
Beat egg with milk. Brush over calzones. Bake for about 15
minutes or until golden brown. Serve immediately.
