Ingredients

  • 2 16oz packages pizza dough (I used the Trader Joes whole wheat variety)
  • 1 lb Italian Sausage
  • 26 oz Pasta sauce (your brand of choice)
  • 16 oz ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 pinch kosher salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 pinch pizza seasoning ( I use McCormicks Pizza Seasoning Blend)
  • 1/4 tsp olive oil

Instructions

For Stuffed Personal Pan Pizzas

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown sausage until browned. Drain and return back to skillet. Add pasta sauce and reduce heat to low to simmer.
  • Place ricotta, parmesan, mozzarella cheese and seasonings in a mixing bowl. Mix until well combined.
  • Cut each of the two pizza doughs into fourths so you have 8 pieces of dough. Press 1/4 pieces into 4 small pizza pans.
  • Top evenly with sausage marinara and then with ricotta (you may have leftovers).
  • Lay the remaining pieces of dough over each pizza to cover the filling. Brush lightly with olive oil then sprinkle with pizza seasoning.
  • Bake for 18-25 minutes or until browned and cooked through.

For Heart Calzones

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown sausage until browned. Drain and return back to skillet. Add pasta sauce and reduce heat to low to simmer.
  • Place ricotta, parmesan, mozzarella cheese and seasonings in a mixing bowl. Mix until well combined.
  • Roll dough 1/4 inch thick. Use heart cookie cutter to cut into dough. Place half of the dough hearts onto a lightly greased or silpat lined baking sheet.
  • Fill each heart with a Tablespoon or so of sauce then top with a small spoonful of ricotta cheese. Top with remaining dough shapes and press edges with the tines of your fork. Brush lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with pizza seasoning.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned and cooked through.

Notes

This recipe makes 4 personal pan pizzas and approximately 10 calzones.
