I’m always looking for new dishes to make for my family and
I love putting new spins on traditional recipes. So when I got the opportunity
to put my own spin on the Ragú Classic Sausage and Peppers, I was super excited!
I started to think about what my family really likes to eat and how they like
to eat. Italian food is always a favorite in my home. Also, my husband and
daughter both love things that they can grab and eat quickly, even for dinner.
So I decided to take the Classic Sausage and Peppers recipe and make my
New Tra-Dish of Sausage and Peppers Calzones! The recipe is super easy and
only requires a few simple ingredients. I hope you enjoy the recipe!
- 16 oz package Italian sausage, sliced into rounds
- 24 oz jar Ragú® Old World Style® Traditional Sauce
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 32 oz pizza dough
Instructions
- Heat
olive oil in medium skillet over medium heat.
For Sausage & Peppers
- Add
sausage and cook stirring occasionally, 5-7 minutes. - Drain
excess fat. - Add
onion and peppers and cook until tender, about 5 minutes - Add
sausage back to pan. - Add
sauce and stir everything together. Set aside
For Calzone
- Preheat
oven to 450 degrees F. - Divide
your pizza dough into 4 balls. - Flatten
your dough into disks into 7″ circles. - Place
dough onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment or a silicone mat. - Spoon
a small amount of your sausage and peppers mixture onto one half of the
pizza dough disk. - Fold
the dough over and seal the edges by folding the edge over itself and
pinching to seal. - Bake
in a 450 degree oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Notes: For
any leftover Sausage & Peppers, you can serve it over pasta and it is
fantastic!
