Steemit Sandwich Contest Week #53 | Red Wine Spicy Italian Calzones

Its another week, yes and a new year of sandwiches….Week 53 of @jaybirds Steemit Sandwich Contest! We had a great celebration last week, unbelievable entries and unexpected prizes! Thanks so much @jaybird for continuing to host this fabulous contest!
This week I was definitely in the mood for a bit of Italian…you know Red Wine, Red Sauce, Italian Sausage…you get the drift!

Prep
First I made the dough…. When ready let it rest until you are ready! I added Rosemary, Oregano and Basil to the dough. It smells wonderful when baking.
Cook the Italian sausage, let it drain and sauté the sliced onions and bella mushrooms. Slice up those black olives and set all aside until we’re ready to assemble
Time to make that luscious sauce! Sauté the minced garlic in olive oil, then add the tomato paste along with the spices and nutritional yeast don’t forget the cayenne…need that bit of lift in your Calzone! Add a little Red Wine…I used Merlot tonight!
Roll out the dough to about ¼” thick. Cut in circular shape; spread a light layer of sauce followed by pepperoni, sausage, onions and black olives. Top with shredded mozzarella and sprinkle with Nutritional yeast. Fold in half and crimp the edges .
Bake at 400 degrees until golden brown! About 20 minutes
Buon Appetito!
I hope you’ll try one, its Saturday night, sit back, relax and enjoy! I made enough for two!
