Easy Calzone Rolls

My Calzone Rolls did not turn out anything like the picture below. I don't know if I was just frustrated by my screaming two year old looking for his "cell phone" or by the fact that these did not work the way the recipe said they would, but my experience making these was all around annoying. First of all the bread dough would not roll out nicely. Secondly, and maybe I rolled the calzones up wrong, but the middle did not cook at the temperature they stated. The outside was all brown and done but the inside was gooey and doughy. The outside rolls ended up having no meat, while the inside ones had too much meat. Things just did not work out at all with this recipe. Maybe I did it wrong, but if I did it is the instructions' fault for not being specific enough because I can usually follow a recipe quite easily.

Enough of my rant against this recipe though. I'd give this recipe 2 stars. I was tempted to give it a 1 but I think that I am just transferring some of my frustration on to it. I have made other pizza rolls before that are a lot better than this. I will have to post a review of it once I'm finished with this 15 for $1.50 series.

Roll each loaf of dough into a rectangle about 8 inches by 12 inches.


Layer ham and salami down the center of each rolled loaf lengthwise. Top meats with 1 cup shredded mozzarella for each roll.


Fold short ends of each loaf in about 1/2 inch and seal. Roll from the long sides and pinch well to seal the entire loaf. You should have 2 long rolls. Bake, seam side down on a greased baking sheet in a 375 degree F oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown.


Cut each roll into 8 slices and serve with marinara for dipping.
