Quickie Calzone

Serves: 3-4

1/2 lb. ground beef
1 c. vegetables (onions, mushrooms, bell peppers, black olives)
2 c. spaghetti sauce, divided
1 can biscuit dough
1/2 c. Mozzarella cheese, shredded
Garlic powder

Brown ground beef until no longer red; drain fat. Add vegetables to skillet for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat. Add 1 cup spaghetti sauce to meat/vegetable mixture. Set aside. Roll each biscuit out to 6" in diameter on lightly floured surface. Place biscuits on a lightly greased cookie sheet and top with meat/veggie mixture and cheese. Top with another biscuit and press sides together. Lightly sprinkle top with garlic powder. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees or until tops are golden brown. Warm remaining spaghetti sauce and serve on the side.

Tips: This was a nice easy way to make a tasty calzone without having to deal with a huge batch of dough. I used Pillsbury Grands biscuits so the recipe made 4 large calzones. If your family prefers different veggies or other meats you can rearrange the recipe to accommodate their tastes.
