Planed my week!

Typing all these recipes are making me hungry! I hope you enjoy! - Tanielle

Calzones

I found this recipe on the Internet somewhere... I can't take the credit but I feel bad I because can't give it either.

CRUST
2 ¼ cup warm water
2 Tbs. sugar
1 Tbs. yeast
Let sit until foamy (approx. 8 min.)
3 tsp. salt
4 ½ tsp. olive oil
6 cups flour (or until soft and not sticky)

I mix it in my Kitchen Aid, but only do one batch or you’ll end up with flour all over your kitchen!:)

Separate the dough into balls a little bigger than a golf ball and roll out flat. We like them thin so I roll the dough out very flat, for thicker dough use more and don’t roll out to flat…

FILLING
-Pretty much anything you like on pizza, we use…
1 pkg. Pepperoni cut into fourths
1tsp minced garlic
2 Tbsp. fresh parsley chopped
1 can olives
5-6 cups shredded cheese (or more, we like cheese!)
1 can pineapple chunks cut in half
1 cup deli ham sliced and cut in squares

Once thee dough is rolled out, place a handful of filling in the center of dough, fold over and close edges. Try to force the air out so you don’t have holes in the dough were the cheese would leak out during baking. Coat the pan with olive oil and the tops of the calzones also or they will be crispy and burn. Then bake at 425 for 10-15 minutes.

SAUCE
1-3 cans of tomato sauce (depends how much sauce you like, Kent drenches his…)
Winco Pizza seasoning ( I get this in Idaho at my mom’s grocery store, it is so good, but it is basically dried spices used in pizza sauce. I’ve seen ‘pizza seasonings’ at the grocery store here so you should be able to find something or even just warm up some spaghetti sauce that works too!)

The best thing about these is that they make around 10-16 depending on how thin you roll the dough. And they freeze awesome, so I always make extra and freeze the rest for those rushed nights, or nights we just don’t want to cook!


Crock Pot Golden Glow Pork Chops
(Originally from Angela Tanner who was in one of Angie Angus, my cousin in-laws old wards)

5-6 pork chops (I buy the thin, boneless kind, but it doesn't matter)
1/4 c. brown sugar
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
1 (29 oz)can cling peaches
1/4 c. vinegar
salt and pepper

Lightly brown pork chops on both sides in large skillet. Put into crock pot. Combine brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, tomato sauce, vinegar, and 1/4 c. syrup from peaches. Sprinkle salt and pepper. Place drained peach halves on top. Pour tomato mixture on top. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours. This recipe may seem kind of different, but we really liked it. Good over rice.
