• Serves 4 if you eat a whole calzone or 8 if you eat half
1 portion homemade pizza dough
1 vidalia or other sweet onion, cut into large slices
1 red pepper, quartered
1 yellow bell pepper, quartered
Cooking spray
1 pound hot Italian turkey sausage links
1 ¾ cups plus 3 tablespoons New York style Pizza Sauce, divided
1 1/3 c. shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 Remove homemade pizza dough from refrigerator ; let stand at room temperature 1 hour
2 Prepare grill to med- high heat
3 Coat onion slices and bell peppers with cooking spray. Place vegetables and sausages on a grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill vegetables 4 mins on each side or until browned. Grill sausages 8 mins on each side or until done. Remove vegetables and sausages from grill; let cool, cut all into small slices.
4 Preheat oven to 500.
5 Place dough on a lightly floured surface; divide dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a rectangle. Spread ¼ cup New York style pizza sauce evenly over each rectangle, leaving a ¼” border. Arrange sausage over half of rectangle, top evenly with onion and bell peppers ( I did half but you can do all over). Sprinkle each calzone with 1/3 c. cheese. Fold other half of dough over filling; press edges together with a fork to seal. ( Use lots of flour! My first one turned out messy b/c I only used a tiny amount of flour, don't be afraid, throw it on!)
6 Place calzones on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Coat calzones with cooking spray. Bake at 500 for 15 mins or until golden brown. Remove from oven; let stand 5 mins. Cut each calzone in half serve with remaining sauce.
