This was so good! My kids helped make the "pockets" and they loved being able to help and loved the taste.

My husband loved the change from pizza and I loved that we could choose our own toppings. My 2 year old had a great time helping.

We had "make your own calzone" night. I put out a variety of pizza toppings and even ham & cheese. Everyone was able to choose their toppings and assemble their own calzone. Not only was it very tasty, and an easy on mom meal, but we had a lot fun too!

This was a neat change from same old pizza. Even my picky eater liked it! I added black olives and onions to some. Very Good!

These were very good. I found it hard to roll out the crescent dough, but I'm sure that comes with inexperience. Otherwise, they were very good to eat :-).

My kids enjoyed helping with this recipe and they loved eating the calzones. We used more pepperoni than what the recipe called for. Next time I will try it with different ingredients (i.e., green peppers, mushrooms, etc.).
