Vegetable Calzonesrecipe from A Cozy Kitchen, I only slightly modified the original IngredientsOlive Oil1/2 yellow onion, thinly slicedPinch o’ salt1/2 cup butternut squash, peeled and cubed 1/2 cup broccolini1/2 cup cremini mushrooms, sliced 2 garlic cloves, minced1 12oz. prepared pizza dough3 tbsp. jarred marinara sauce 1 mozzarella ball  Directions In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.  Add onions and a pinch of salt to skillet and cook onions for 20 min., or until brown and caramelized.  While onions are cooking, preheat oven to 400F.  Place cubed squash on baking sheet, toss in olive oil and sprinkle with salt & pep.  Roast for 15 min. or until soft.  Remove and set aside. When the onions are complete, add the broccolini and mushrooms, saute for 5-10 min.  Add the garlic to the top and cook until just fragrant. Flour your work surface and roll out pizza dough.  Transfer to a piece of parchment.  Add sauce to one half, top with vegetable mixture, add the butternut squash, and finish it off with a few slices of mozzarella. Fold dough in half, over the filling, and crimp as desired to seal.  Transfer the parchment with the calzone onto a baking sheet.  Slice a hole at the top to allow steam to escape.  Cook in over until dough is puffed up and golden brow, about 15-20 min. NotesMy un-fancy grocery store didn’t carry broccolini or cremini mushrooms.  No problem, though, I opted for plain old broccoli and simply chopped it into smaller pieces.  I bought baby bella mushrooms and they worked just as well.  I made three small calzones instead of one large.  I made extra veggies but I also should have purchased more pizza dough.  They were incredibly hard to seal because I had so little dough.  These would have also benefitted from a touch of basil in the filling.  Oh, and make sure you buy a good marinara sauce, preferably something with a bit of flavor, it will really help the final product pop!  These were outrageously good and I will be making them again.
