Easy Calzones

1 refrigerated pizza crust (found by the biscuits and cookies)
Turkey pepperoni
Heat and Serve breakfast sausage
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
4-5 mushrooms, chopped
Mozzarella cheese
1 can pizza sauce

Preheat oven to temperature determined on package. Lightly flour a baking sheet. Roll out pizza crust on it (not too thin). Place a handful of cheese on left half of dough. Top with ingredients. Then place one more handful of cheese on top. Bring right side of dough over the top and seal edges. Use a fork to push down edges to make sure they are sealed. Puncture the top of the calzone at least four times with the fork to allow steam to escape during cooking. Put in oven for time determined by pizza crust package. Meanwhile, heat up the pizza sauce in the microwave. Once calzone is cooked, serve it "smothered" or with pizza sauce on the side for dipping.

**These were just the ingredients we used our first time making calzones. Next time, I think I'll use chicken and play around with that. Maybe BBQ Chicken calzones?!?!
