Fake Calzones

An attempt to use up some leftovers. Kind of weirdly fusion-y.

Ingredients

about 1/4 recipe of chapati bread
1/2 zucchini,
chopped
1/4 onion, chopped
a handful of spinach
2 mushrooms, sliced (I used "Baby Bella", which I think are crimini)
a few cloves of garlic, diced
paprika, chili powder, salt, pepper, oregano, basil
2 T. tomato sauce
cheese
(I used Pepper Jack and Mozzarella)

Methodology

1. Heat some oil in a pan and add the garlic. Saute the veg and spices until cooked. Remove from pan.

2. Roll out the bread into a biggish circle. Put tomato sauce in the center, add some spinach and some of the veg. Put cheese on top. Fold it over and seal the edges.

3. Cook the calzone in a pan until brown on all sides, being careful not to rip it.

Notes

*The edges were still a little more mushy than you might like, but the dough doesn't have any eggs in it so it's not a huge deal.

*Pretty delicious, all in all. About a 3/7 on the disaster index.
