From allrecipes.com: "Once you try these mini calzones, you may never go back to fixing the large ones again! These calzones come together in a snap, and are a great way to sneak a few veggies into your kid's diet. The best part is they are small so it makes it easy for little hands to pick up and eat. Plus they taste like pizza and there's even a dipping sauce!" Reviewers commented that sauteing the vegetables made everything even tastier, and one reviewer thought that substituting refrigerated pizza dough for the crescent dough would be an even better bet. Either way, these calzones sound great!
